That means it works, right now. But not being in the distro means there
are no guaruntees of it working in the future.

Honestly, at this point I'd -1 an add like this. I think pulling a
package out of experimental is not really inspiring confidence. I'd
suggest looking for a package available in Ubuntu natively.
