Seems like we're once again having some disagreement in terms of
how to approach problems: If a proper solution requires more
extensive work, then to me this not a reason to discard it without
any further evaluation. You, otoh, seem to prefer adding more
workarounds and fixmes. If you were to tell me that the solution
isn't suitable for technical reasons, that would be a different thing.
