Regrettably the state of both of those features is nowhere near
complete enough for wide production use. Highlighting them as tier 1
items would be misleading. If there is a way to say these are good
steps towards the full feature set people expect then it will work.
Initial, basic, entry level etc.. (Note that I'm not commenting on the
internal implementation, just the user facing feature set).

If we say we have something when we don't we let down our users,
reduce our reputation and stifle any chance of improving them later,
since people say "I thought we already had those?". Partitioning fell
into the same problem and I'd like to avoid that.

Do you mean the fast failover option?
