AlternateLayoutRule

Hi, I noticed that ghc now supports an 'AlternateLayoutRule' but am
having trouble finding information about it. Is it based on my
proposal and sample implementation?
http://www.mail-archive.com/haskell-prime@haskell.org/msg01938.html

https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/haskell-prime/wiki/AlternativeLayoutRule
implies it has been in use since 6.13. If that is the case, I assume
it has been found stable?

I ask because I was going to rewrite the jhc lexer and would like to
use the new mechanism in a way that is compatible with ghc. If it is
already using my code, so much the better.
