But what does that mean, exactly? And how would you explain it to your
metaphorical sister? "Unsupported" is scary and makes it sound dangerous
to use - is it? If it's not dangerous then maybe it should be enabled by
default. If it is, then maybe the existence of universe needs to be
re-evaluated.

What, unstable/testing? They're pretty bad names IMHO as most people
seem to equate stability with crashyness of individual programs, whereas
stuff can be in unstable yet be very well tested and solid versions (or
maybe not).
