Is there a comprehensive list of what units are eligible for experience upgrades?

From recon of the game's tech trees it appears that there are three ways to be eligible for an experience upgrade (non-gunpowder or siege):

Knights: Swordsmith's Guild (+1 max) and Tourney (+2 max)
Archers: Woodsmen's Guild (+3 max)
Cavalry: Horsebreeder's Guild (+3 max)
(The poor infantry...)

A couple of questions than come to mind:

- Do mounted knights get to stack upgrades? (as knights AND cavalry)

- Do dismounted knights share equally in 'Knight' experience upgrades? (from the tourney for example)

- Do 'Quasi-Knight' units get upgrades? (Armoured Swordsman, Men at Arms, Lancers, etc.)

Knights +1 from swordsmith (the HQ gives also global +1)
Archers +2 (its a bug, the HQ gives global +2 but local 0)

- Mounted knights do get combined upgrades from Horsbreeder, Swordsmen, Tourney field. Order knights do also get an upgrade from their minor chapter house, major chapter house and HQ.
If you have more than one Master swordsmith or a master and a HQ those upgrades will also combine.

- Dismounted don't get an upgrade

- Quasi Knights don't get knights upgrades.

The term "Knight" is misleading, it's actually heavy cavalry who gets the bonus.

I suppose it´s all units with the "knight" attribute in EDU.

As far as the English are concerned, all cavalry units get the bonus, except the Hobilars.

Apparently horses are trainable (bigger ones more so?)... men not so much.

Thanks for the inputs.
