Rather than applying workarounds found in forums or telling users how to
patch stuff, this could have been fixed four months ago when the ticket
was first opened.

I know there are way too many bug reports and I also know that Canonical
prefers Gnome over KDE, but having such a simple thing not working is a
shame especially when there's been a patch for quite some time. Does
anyone have a suggestion who needs to be asked to fix this?
