I would add "well tested (i.e. very mature) or having somebody willing to
fix it (soon) if needed".

Related to that, I wonder if we should create some standard mechanism for
introducing experimental things - things which might later show as
unstable, not useful or buggy. For example, I introduced v.decimate which
is now in 7.2 branch. It has its merit but I started to think that perhaps
a different set of functions or interface can be more useful there. I
wonder if I should just put [experimental - use with care] at the end of
the module description.

This is out-of-topic here, but similarly we might want to introduce
something like [deprecated] for modules, options and flags.
