For features marked 'experimental' an extensive test suite is not
required. But features marked stable should have extensive tests, also
to reduce the risk of changes and bugfixes.

Let's say, features marked stable need to have 80% code coverage and
90% functional test coverage.

I'm absolutely not proposing Big Design Up Front and the waterfall
model. What I'm proposing is Test Driven Development
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test-driven_development).
