The challenge with that is when do things get marked stable? No one has any motivation to do that (unless users complain). For example, We have a couple of platforms that have an unstable bindings statement that has been there "forever". I would like a solution though. The only idea I have is passing SystemReady cert, but that's an Arm thing.
