Hi,

This behavior was originally reported more than ten years ago, and we haven’t noticed significant demand or follow-up from the community since then. Also, there is a feasible workaround that can be applied. As a result, we currently plan to prioritize improvements that have a broader impact and are more widely requested.

This ticket is marked as "Declined". If this limitation is still affecting your scenario, please share additional context or use cases. 

Regards,
Nadya | Tech Support Engineer
