"Supported" has implications for the security team: namely, if a
security issue is discovered, we will issue an XSA.  Juergen, are you
satisfied that the PV display / sound drivers are of sufficient quality
that we can recommend people use them?

(I'm not saying they aren't, I just have no idea.)

Thanks,

Yes, I think "supported" is fine.
