AFAIK the rt2860sta is in staging because it does bring its own stack instead of using the in kernel mac80211 stack. Not because it is especially flakey. For the same reason it will also never make it from staging to the kernel proper. Instead the rt2x00 driver family is supposed to take over. Between lucid and maverick rt2x00 drivers have become the new default for many devices. This has worked for many, but also caused quite a few bug reports. For some on lucid, the new linux-backports-modules-compat-wireless-2.6.36.. package might bring a solution.
