Any reason this simple and useful 2-line change has gone unreviewed and unmerged for 2 months?

I've had this discussion somewhere in the issue queue before, I still question what the use-case would be

For posterity, this is a great help in identifying which test fails when a test's output does not uniquely identify the test in question. Having the file and title exposed is exactly what we needed to immediately find the problem test. By far easier than process of elimination.

Hi, was this feature documented? Can't find it in docs...

For the next person who comes here wishing this feature was documented: the state values appear to be the strings failed and passed, per https://github.com/mochajs/mocha/blob/master/lib/runner.js

hmmm... and how do I retrieve the status of the test suite before (or after) closing the browser or calling the .quit() method?!
