What you can do to have a solution implemented? Write the code. This is an
open-source project, after all…

“A dev”? “What is being done”? This is an open-source project developed
primarily by volunteers. AFAIK there is no official
paid-by-Wikimedia-Foundation project to implement this functionality. You can
hardly detect whether some volunteer somewhere spends his time working on this
(and I know of no such person). We cannot expect a fix to be made until
somebody goes and creates it…

Go implement the functionality, or go and bug the Foundation to throw some
money on the problem and assign a paid developer to it. There is no point in
debating the severity of it *here* (it’s not like there are bored developers
lurking around here and not fixing the bug just because they do not consider it
a problem).

OTOH, should the bug really be “ASSIGNED to Philip Tzou”? Is he actively
working on solving this bug? I see he attached his patches here, but that is
only a part of the solution.
