Will my workarounds continue to work should the behaviour be "corrected"?

All I really ask is that you present your changes in a way that clearly shows how the behaviour will be modified (or prove that it won't be changed). It appears that there is now some discussion and documentation occuring around that point and that is far more acceptable than a patch to a sensitive area that merely purports to be an improvement without providing even test cases let alone a thorough examination of the issues.
