Experimental features are available but are not as robustly supported as other features.

In particular, experimental features:

• Are not tested as well as stable features.
• Do not get bugs fixed as quickly as established features.
• The APIs could drastically change if we find a different, better way to solve the same problem.
• May disappear entirely if the feature is too difficult to support.
