Yes, lack of developers ;-) (Just like the old grace note bug will probably 
not get fixed for a long time) 
Seriously, this issue goes very deep, dealing with the very internals of 
lilypond. Thus, it is quite intricate to get right, and there are not so many 
developers who understand what is going on exactly...

Cheers,
