If it's just a naming issue for you, then yes, we could change the current EXPERIMENTAL/BROKEN/EMBEDDED questions around a bit. So we could split the EMBEDDED question into "STANDARD" (which implies VT, INPUT layer, PS/2 ATKBD) and "FEATURECOMPLETE" (FUTEX, EPOLL, NET). Is it worth it? I see EMBEDDED as more of a "STANDARD" thing - for people who don't care or know, that's a slight safety-net saying "this selects the things you take for grated".
