Sounds good to me. I've therefore merged my patch to the master branch 
as df288d2e414, so closing this bug.

If we think this issue is important enough to fix for Emacs 30, I 
suppose we could consider backporting my patch for the (hypothetical) 
30.2 release after 30.1 is tagged. Then users could get the fix a bit 
faster, and we wouldn't be adding last-minute changes to 30.1. I don't 
have a strong opinion on whether to do this or not though.
