Has there been any resolution regarding `sortTestMethodsUsing`? See https://bugs.python.org/msg77261

I spend a decent time and read the documentation thrice before realizing it received an old-style compare function. Brett's proposal for a new attribute seems like a sane way to do this without breaking backwards compatibility. Or will this continue using an old-style compare function for the foreseeable future?
