Any objections to committing cmake builds for Windows to the stable branches?

With something easily visible like README.cmake containing appropriate
disclaimers?*

I suspect that build bugs are likely to be found more quickly with the
stable branches just because it fits into more applications and/or
workflows (i.e., more people).

*i.e., probably has bugs in the build, has known limitations (see list),
build interface may change in a future stable release (until it is no
longer experimental), etc.
