I would love to see that fixed, yes.

Priority is only relevant when there's someone who intends to work on
this soon and knows how to fix it.  I don't think there's such a
person at this time.

I myself thought about this quite a lot, and I simply have no idea how
to fix this without redesigning most of the Emacs display code.  And
to do that, it will take someone more talented than myself and/or
someone with much more time on their hands.  Sorry.
