Demos will also appear across Steam in various places, acting as if they're a free game. So you can expect to see them in charts like New & Trending and across all the tags

That sounds incredibly obnoxious.

They will probably add a check box for them like you can with nsfw games.

That would be good.

I'm not complaining about them improving the platform or trying to make developers more willing to do demos. But I also don't want demo spam clogging up my browsing in addition to all the free to play trash.
