The RMT discussed this issue at its meeting today (and a few weeks back
-- apologies for not writing sooner). While we agree with your analysis
that 1/ this issue does appear to be a corner case and 2/ the benefits
outweigh the risks, we still don't know how prevalent it may be in the
wild and the general impact to user experience.
The RMT suggests that you make one more pass at attempting to solve it.
If there does not appear to be a clear path forward, we should at least
document how a user can detect and resolve the issue.
Thanks,
Jonathan
