Research direction

Read the open pull request #843 and the structlog code that defines CallsiteParameter to see how this request is being handled. The issue asks whether Python 3.12's taskName logging attribute should be added; done would mean the attribute is supported and covered by an appropriate test.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Hello,

As of Python 3.12, the standard library logging added a new attribute taskName (see here). Is there any plan to add this attribute as well to structlog at some point?

Thanks
Jose M. Prieto
