Or maybe we can keep all of them in experimental for a while, and 
duplicate only those that prove (or are suspected eventually, after 
discussing that) to be problematic? I would rather keep things as 
straightforward as possible with the dependencies, gradle has a lot of 
dependencies but several of them only have very few reverse-dependencies 
other than gradle and sometimes kotlin.

By the way, any opinion about making that new gradle a "gradle8" package 
that provides "gradle"? My feeling is that maintaining up to 3 major 
versions of Gradle is probably going to be necessary, given the breaking 
changes with every major release (and sometimes in between) and what's 
already announced for future releases.

Cheers,
