Description
I've recently migrated my project from nose to nose2. On my nose setup, I utilized the plugin nose-randomly to randomly order test execution. It looks like that project is no longer being maintained, and I am curious if there are any plans to support this feature in nose2 itself (or via its built-in plugins).

Research direction
The issue names nose-randomly and nose2 but no files or tests. Start by reviewing nose2's existing built-in plugin support and the referenced nose-randomly behavior, then clarify the intended scope. Done would require an agreed design for random test ordering and corresponding implementation and tests.
