I think SUPPORT.md should primarily be for end users to determine
whether they should use an interface or not. A technical discussion
about exactly to what degree an interface has (or hasn't) been vetted is
more towards a developer who may be looking to get things into a
supported state, and so should probably be in the code somewhere.
