This would be a great place to do the other TODO list item and fix
experimental tag support.  Then we could put this in now and mark it
experimental.  The main thing that I believe currently doesn't happen and
should for that to work properly is that experimental tags should not be
displayed by default and should have to be explicitly enabled.

Then, we can make it non-experimental after the release.

Does that sound like a good idea?
