@twisterdotcom @situchan This was something I reported in #49162 (comment) and @nkdengineer already debugged it and wrote a quick proposal for it. I'm opening this issue so the problem can be fixed. We can skip looking at other proposals for this one.

@nkdengineer Can you please comment on this issue so I can assign it to you?

@tgolen I'm here.
