I haven't yet. I have a personal TODO of:
 - make testtools totally equivalent to unittest2
 - check that subunit.run works with unittest2 base classes
 - make stdlib unittest, unittest2 and testtools easier still to use
with subunit than subunit.run

No, I'm not sure its quite there yet. for instance, I know that 'testr
run' on windows will fail (it runs 'foo | testr load').

Ronny did a stab towards a nose subunit plugin; that should be fairly
straightforward to fix. I should mail Holger and ask if he's interested
in bundling a subunit adapter.

Cool. Please file bugs on anything no matter how small or large.
