With the current display code on `master`, I don't think the behaviors
you refer to can qualify as incorrect.  You can argue that they are
less often preferable than some other choice, but that's a far cry from
incorrect, IMO, and then should be fairly uncommon.  So it's definitely
not very high priority and shouldn't decide whether we install
a particular version of the code right now.
