Eventually we will, when we have the concept described well enough -- especially since the speed improvement is so big.
Not using key, is like having to use Perl (or any other programming language) without being allowed to use hash tables for lookup purposes.
Use XT if it fits your purpose, but please do not use argumentation like the above since it puts all of us down.
