Notes
| Author | Note |
|---|---|
| mdeslaur | Backporting the fix for this issue is risky, may introduce regressions, and will change behaviour for existing users, possibly preventing them from using their existing configuration. For this reason, we will not be fixing this issue in stable releases. |
