So, what's the latest status of skill runes?

The skill runes were obviously the only thing where Jay himself wasn't too sure where they were going as of beginning of August. Are they now dropping unidentified and rolling random stats when you socket them into an active skill? I realize this is a rather huge question, since skill runes is a core system, and not seeing it completed yet might be huge factor for delaying the game.|||in the interview and subsequent bash posts they were just tossing the idea around at the time, it wasn't even ingame and it could be they never put it ingame. no new news atm.
