    My guess is that the feature is marked EXPERIMENTALLY right?  That
    doesn't nessecarily mean it's unstable or incompatible or something.
    Read the documentation for the configuration option, and if it say
    something like `only use this option if you know what you're doing'
    then don't use it.  Also read the documentation in the `Documentation'
    sub-directory of the source tree.   If you find no warnings as to
    unstability or similar, then go ahead and use it.  If it's _not_
    marked EXPERIMENTALLY, then it's completly safe to use. 
    
    Yours,
