I do believe there is something here worth exploring. You will just need
to be patient and wait for someone capable to agree. If it's really
important to you paid support services are an option.

The fact that there are few reports being made of this nature, coupled with
the upfront hostility of the reports, makes it easy to put the concern
aside while less difficult problems exist - and, to repeat, while being at
the very end of a development cycle for a new release.
