The index.html page in the incubator directory says this:

The Incubator directory contains components and other code that have been contributed to the OpenLaszlo project, but have not yet been fully integrated into the product. It is intended as an easy way to contribute code that doesn't have the level of documentation, testing, or API review that is required in other directories, or that is simply contributed too late in the release cycle to place elsewhere.

Is it our intention to move some of this into the product proper at some point?

Until then, I don't think it should go into the documentation, especially since it has not been properly tested. If we documented it, wouldn't we be obliged
to support it?

At this point incubator is not even mentioned in the dguide (not that that's
necessarily a good thing).

As a side effect, I'm picking up stuff in the incubator, much of which
does not have much documentation.  Should I leave incubator out?

It might be nice someday to include it and have the menu item say:
   colorpicker (incubator)
and have a banner across the shown page to indicate it's in the incubator.
But I can leave that for another time if we leave incubator out of the
documentation.  There's so much more to do.
