New tests are routinely backported when they accompany bug fixes, so new features under Lib/test are probably a fair game.  Given that this feature is implemented entirely in a file that is not used for any other purpose, I see little risk for stability.

I guess the fate of this request will depend on whether stable release maintainers are annoyed enough by having to remember -m test.regrtest.
