Fully agree, such features should become experimental. We should have this
information in release notes.

Basically, Patching of OpenStack becomes as such, unfortunately. We still
have bugs, and there is no guarantee that we won't find more.

So, let's add "experimental" tag to issues around Zabbix & Patching of
OpenStack.
