IMO: yes. If we want end-users to use a particular flag, we should expose it as 
a Driver flag. If we want to reserve the right to change or delete it, putting 
"experimental" in the name conveys that -- significantly more than telling 
users to spell the flag `-Xclang -foo` does.

There's a real underlying problem here that the name `-Xclang` seems like 
"clang-specific flag" not "unstable internal API don't depend on me" -- to 
everyone who is not a Clang Driver developer...
