Yay. I agree it is time.

It's still possible there are bugs that feature.experimental folks
missed, but at some point we need to flip this switch to get the
exposure to find those bugs. Doing it early in a cycle makes sense.

The patches themselves look good to me. I look forward to dropping the
perl version entirely, just to reduce the duplicated code, but I think
your approach of leaving it as an escape hatch for now makes sense in
the shorter term.
