Importance is low, because it doesn't cause data loss, crash the OS or
render ones machine unusable.
zsh is still fully operational, albeit without documentation available.

No policy is preventing to repair this bug, on the contrary backport
of the bug fix from utopic as appropriate for trusty is eagerly
awaited by many users here. When someone steps up to create such path

However, no such work has been done yet and nobody is working on it at
