An experimental standard

I was wondering if Fortran could have an experimental standard, similar to the C++ experimental std. The experimental standard would include the features not yet voted into the official standard. The experimental standard would need fewer votes from the standard committee members to include a new feature and have a shorter turnaround time. The experimental standard can be a testing ground for new features and also benefit those longing for modern programming features.
