we were just talking about this on the nova channel.
for it to be usable in nova an os-brick release needs to be done
https://github.com/openstack/os-brick/compare/5.1.0...master

so we need a 5.2.0 release based on b29f1529228bb7a16c2373f7bbf1cf862438aa23 i guess
https://github.com/openstack/releases/blob/master/deliverables/yoga/os-brick.yaml

then that will allow this to be useable in the zuul jobs ectra.
