True, especially because installing fglrx is sometimes quite a pain and
not really an option for many out there, as you pointed out.

I just checked in the kernel.org bugtracker and it appears that this is
actually a known bug
(https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88481). This bug was,
however, logged for v3.17.3.
