There is a tracker issue for it and some discussion. The current state
is somewhat misleading as well as inconsistent, so change is desirable.
There does not seem to be a high level of excitement for fixing this
among those who discussed it. That makes it likely that any action will
take a while before the topic reaches the top of the importance list for
any of the usual suspects. Have you followed the discussion in the
tracker?
