As usual:

 . someone should post a patch
 . macOS users should run with the patch for a while and provide feedback
 . interested individuals should actively and routinely request feedback
 . after some time, we install the patch with whatever changes it accrues

AFAIU, in this case what we should do now is more testing on more
relevant platforms, and Someone™ should volunteer to track the
testing and collect feedback/make changes to the patch, until we
decide it's tested enough.
