This was just recently changed in the docs.  I almost changed it in the 
wxPython wrappers too but then I remembed the pain of changing the 
wxNotebook.AddPage parameter names and decided to wait a bit...

If there is to be an API change then there is no reason to not change 
the parameter names as well.

I'm -1 on doing it in 2.4 since the API of the 2.4 branch should stay as 
stable as possible...  OTOH, I suppose it could be started in 2.4 as 
long as there was backwards compatibility aliases which would be simple 
to do.
