Yep. For the user there isn't much of a difference between
"experimental" and "unsupported" though, except that "experimental"
indicates that someone is working on it and the chances are higher that
it'll transition to "supported" at some point in the future. So I'm not
fully sure it makes sense to list that as separate category.
