Yeah, I'm telling him all the time that he should use tags that "most of the
world" would agree on rather than his personal quality standards. He's just
_extremely_ conservative in this regard. If Mike is going to declare
something stable then it really means you can't break it ever. What "alpha,
bleeding edge" means in _his_ context is that as far as the implementation
is concerned it is stable. There _may_ be a few places which break (for
example, if they aren't exception-aware) but by and large I would classify
this as "beta/stable".
