If you'd like an example format for marking a section of the docs as
provisional w/ reST, something like this at the top should suffice
(with perhaps something more specific to the subinterpreters module):


.. note::
    This section of the documentation and all of its members have been
    added *provisionally*. For more details, see :term:`provisional api`.


:term:`provisional api` generates a link to
https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-provisional-api.
