It's been ad-hoc up until now. But Deryck has accepted to build a
generic way to label things beta as part of the Custom Bugs Listing
feature starting next week.

So I suggest waiting a few weeks for the generic-beta-feature support to
land and then use that.

P.S. I also think that labelling Hg import as beta is a good idea FWIW.
