'Unmaintained code' is not the point. For example, everything in tree must
be updated for API changes, which is not done by engine authors. Again, I
feel dismissing this as 'irrelevant' is not the best way to discuss such
merges. There is a long-term maintenance cost when adding new code, unless
we really intend to just leave it unsupported and disabled forever.

(And unmaintained/unfinished code is not removed from our tree until it is
clearly unlikely to support any games any time soon, at least so far.)
