 > Should we have this opt-in, or just warn people that this alpha may try
 to update itself and break?

 As said on IRC, I think we should just warn the people. The alpha is the
 base for the next stable and thus it should contain the code and features
 of it, too (if possible). Otherwise we might miss serious bugs that are
 hard to find if we disable things.
