I think I addressed this in an earlier thread, but I'm opposed to doing
this. I'm strongly in favor of granting an exception to any developer who wants
to use experimental apis for in-tree code, but I would like for them to have to
opt into that decision, rather than just have a blanket allowance. I think
theres value in a developer having to make tha conscious decision when writing
new code.
