It doesn't help to just "track down" the bug report. Because as you can see, the bug report in your link is from 2018 and it has not been resolved yet, almost 1 year later.
So ideally make at least a comment on the bug report, so it gets noticed that this is still a thing and that it is important. Otherwise you probably won't see any improvement, because this is clearly on hold or forgotten.
