Looking at NUT pull request (PR) history on GitHub, I see that we have
had a non-trivial number of stalled driver contributions sharing a prominent
similarity: proposed names for some of the variables did not fit into the list
defined at https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/blob/master/docs/nut-names.txt
I propose to add a namespace like "experimental.*"
The future RFC refers to the file nut-names.txt as the "Recording Document" for
variable names, thus giving it the authority of the RFC. It would be useful to
clarify this in the introductory paragraph beginning "This is a dump...". It is
more than a dump. The process for adding a variable name to NUT could be
formalised under a new heading such as "Process for adding new variable names".
The text following that heading could then introduce experimental.... variables.
