The C++ standards committee incorporated into the C++ standard a lot of
ideas that most C++ programmers had never seen nor heard of before.

I havent seen anything go past that I think is experiemental (I would have
complained). Ramps exists in DX and audality at least, events in many
systems, unified audio data in VST and LADSPA, MIDI parsing in
alsa-sequencer, metadata in LADSPA. What is experimental? I've seen this
more as taking the best features from each system.
