My reading of https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T76728 and https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/182858 is that this change is likely already live on Wikimedia wikis. It also looks like this change will be part of MediaWiki 1.25 and later.
Are you sure? https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/182858 was merged April 15.
Yes, it's currently live on all Wikimedia wikis and has been backported to 1.25.
Brad, is it OK to use formatversion=2 in extensions running on 1.25?
Yes, generally, although it might mean an extra change or two later if something it depends on gets improved. The "experimental" warning is because I don't want to have to announce breaking changes every time someone finds an instance of T12887 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T12887 that we can fix, or something that's still using a "*" key, or some other bit of output formatting that could be cleaned up.
