Couple more flaws:

1.  The list of drivers is unsorted.  This didn't matter when we had
only 2-4 drivers, but with 4-6 drivers it becomes confusing.  The order
of the nvidia drivers is essentially random (the code is just getting
dict.keys()) so sometimes the experimental driver appears first.  This
could be a problem if users accidentally just pick whatever's at the top
of the list.  The experimental drivers should sort towards the bottom of
the list ideally.  As we add more experimental drivers, this will become
a bigger problem...

2.  The description and rationale from the experimental driver is not
getting populated from the control file, as per the plan.  It just uses
the standard nvidia driver description.
