Thank you for this.  We will release a new prerelease of Emacs soon, for
what will become the new Emacs 28.1, and if you could repeat these tests
for that version, that will be greatly appreciated.

Meanwhile, does it make sense to keep this bug report open?  I skimmed
the discussion and it seems like several issues were fixed, but perhaps
many of them still remain?
