env: follow up on argv0 setting feature

About a year ago, I posted an env feature request on this list:
the ability to set the value of argv[0].

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2023-03/msg00002.html

I also sent a patch:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2023-03/msg00003.html

After some discussion, I was informed it was under consideration:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2023-03/msg00012.html

> We're still considering and will adjust as needed.

I waited a while and eventually sent an email about it:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2023-08/msg00059.html

The maintainer noted that they expected this feature to be included
in the next release which would be focused on features:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2023-08/msg00060.html

Since then I've been tracking commits to the coreutils master branch
but it appears the feature has not landed yet.

What happened? Was it rejected?
