Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

Please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates for details of Ubuntu's stable release update process. Based on your report it sounds like this patch would qualify, but please could you update us on the status of the bug in newer releases of Ubuntu so we can note where work is needed?

I'm not sure how to prioritize this bug. Under what circumstances are users affected by this problem? Is this problem likely to affect a large number of Ubuntu users?

Either way, if it's a bug with a straightforward patch then you're welcome to follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure, and if you can provide us with patches ready for inclusion in Ubuntu under that procedure (and it turns out to qualify under our policy), I'd be happy to help you get the fix landed.
