I Phobos should follow OpenGL in this regard and use a
prefix like `etc` for useful but not finalized modules, so
early adapters can try out new modules compare them with any
existing API in Phobos where applicable (e.g. streams,
json, ...) and report any issues. I have a feeling that right
now most modules are tested by 2 people prior to the merge,
because they spent a life in obscurity.
