Yeah. OK, water under the bridge.

I'm afraid I see a slight contradiction in the previous statement :)

 Er...

I propose this:

- update the changelog to say UDA are implemented, but are potentially
subject to change. Use them, people, and report!
- merge Jacob's pull request to have a documentation. Proeminently put a
warning in the docs saying this is an experimental feature (I know, this
should be a parallel branch, that's not the case, give it a rest).
- collect impression in 1-2 months.

I mean, how can the devs hope for any return on UDA if they are an Easter
egg feature?
