Agreed. For example, the HTTP standard has moved away from X-prefixed
headers for similar reasons.

What about standardizing on an 'experimental' prefix such as -fx-use-rpaths or -fx-kill-oneshot? These flags would not be added to the user guide and their intent clear when actually using them. As already stated in an earlier reply I think we should have documentation for the sake of other developers.
I don't like the idea of separate prefix for experimental flags. This could be problematic when the flag becomes stable - we would have to change its name and that would break backwards compatibility.
