I belive that Jacob Carlborg is working on a solution. So,  there _is_ work 
being done on it. By no means does that mean that you shouldn't work on a 
solution, but it's not the case that no one has been working on the problem - 
though it is true that it's been being brought up for far longer than it's 
been being worked on.
