My request was that the artifact be beam-runners-jet-experimental or beam-runners-experimental-jet so that a user was clearly opting in to experimental functionality, per the discussion. I try not to have a strong opinion about the mechanism. Probably the most natural thing to do is just configure the publishing { } block to make it explicit.
