Hi Ian,
Thanks for bringing this back up on the radar. I've updated Issue #1937 so
that the team can take another look at the issue and consider it for
inclusion for 1.6. Given that the HTMLPanel solution no longer works, this
should probably be fixed for 1.6. The issue log should be seeing some action
soon, so keep an eye out for that.

Issue #1937:

Cheers,
