Problem is that we'd occupy two top-level namespaces instead of one. Right now people know better than define a package called "std". From here onwards they'd need to remember that both "std" and "experimental" are verboten.

I wouldn't want to take the discussion much further, as I'm sure there are many nuances of paint for this bikeshed. If you want top-level experimental, go for it.

Yah. Would that be std.experimental or just experimental? I suggest
the former.

Called "experimental". Into this would go proposed new Phobos modules,
such that they will go out with dmd releases. Once they've been in use
for a while and prove themselves, then they can be moved into std (or
dropped).

This was proposed in the n.g. and seems to be well received.
