The official status means the Pov team is dedicated to resolving bugs and
it becomes a customer service issue. If they don't build it they offer no
gaurantee that a platform specific bug will not be present and if they don't
have the resources for that platform they can't fix it anyway. It could
become a bug reporting nightmare for them. They will however make an honest
attempt to resolve bugs for the platforms they do "officialy" support. Seems
a reasonable policy if you stop to think about it.
