I just opened https://pagure.io/modularity/issue/156 to make a proper
policy decision on this, including my recommendation:

***
* It is not permissible to make a prerelease stream the default stream
for a module in any release.(*)
* It is permissible to include a pre-release stream in Rawhide at any time.
* It is permissible to include a pre-release stream in a stable branch
of Fedora if the stream name clearly identifies it as unstable in some
manner. When the stream is ready to be treated as stable, a new stream
should be created with an [appropriate
name](https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/modularity/making-modules/naming-guidelines/#_module_stream_name)
(such as a version number or other indicator of API/UX compatibility).

(*) Note that this is different from a "rolling" stream, in that the
expectation on rolling streams are that all of the updates are stable,
not that they are experimental and might change.
