Some of these issues (e.g. #50271) can be fixed by #39039
I have it integrated in my custom 3.x build and it's great.

[EricEzaM]

As this keeps coming up, do we want to revisit the fix for 3.X in the PR @KoBeWi mentioned?

@akien-mga @RandomShaper

It's not prefect but it could tide things over until 4.0 where the 'proper' fix is.

That might be worth trying yeah.
