In keeping with this point, maybe also emit a warning when
building? Something to the effect of:
"WOAAAAH, hey there, you're using a module from std.experimental;
don't expect it to work next week. Or ever."
On a more serious note, what's the vision for bug reporting on
this? If we just use the current Bugzilla, I'd imagine it should
at least have its own keyword, but I wonder if it shouldn't just
be its own component so it provides a clear separation from
Phobos. (As a value-add, then the hypothetical warning can also
tell them to report errors against it specifically rather than
generating noise.)
