I dislike that approach. SemVer explicitly do not support stability across major releases, which implies that no stability is promised about a feature having same API across major releases. I find it bad to encourage SemVer-breakage by offering non-SemVer virtual packages. Individual packages are still free to not care about SemVer but then need to fully admit that by depending on the core crate, without features.
