That's good to know -- should it be documented a bit more explicitly, or 
perhaps the alpha checks should be removed until they're fit for public 
consumption? Some of those alpha checks have been in the product for a long 
time, and if they're so unstable that we cannot expose them in a user-friendly 
fashion, perhaps they don't belong yet?
