I agree with you. I never tried to install system packages from 
experimental. Too dangerous. In the past, I tried to install 
experimental digikam but it didn't work... When I need some programs or 
libraries (Ex Bullet)  I prefer to compile myself and install with 
checkinstall. It works well.
Best regards.
