What problems would this solve?
===============================
According to experts, calling out a prefix isn't precise enough. A prefix may be mandatory, a configuration item may be required, etc. These should appear as attributes rather than free-text fields.
Who would use this?
===================
Developers who want to use experimental features will need to know precisely how to enable them.
What would users see?
=====================
MDN users could see a visual indicator that additional steps are needed to use a feature, with pop-ups or hovers hinting at the precise changes needed.
What would users do? What would happen as a result?
===================================================
MDN users would see that additional steps are needed to use a feature.
Is there anything else we should know?
======================================
