Hello? I know I'm not the only one with this bug:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1789452

I wish I could help out; unfortunately, I have neither the skills nor
the time immediately to hand. It just seems that bug reporting has
become a futile process: unless it is a problem that either affects such
a large number of people it is impossible to ignore, or a problem that
personally affects a developer, it seems that there is no motivation
even to triage (let alone fix!). I know I haven't paid for support, and
I know I'm not helping out particularly with the bugs I report, but it
is frustrating that an evident lack of engineering and QA resources
manifests itself in this way; as I said, I'm not the only person with
this bug.
