I didn't close the bug, mind you. I just removed it from the list of those blocking the impending release. You, or anyone else, are free to work on fixing it and/or discuss the various approaches to dealing with this issue. > Before I do start spending time on it, I would like some assurance > that my fix will not be blocked or reverted (both have happened to > other things in the core I've worked on) I doubt that anyone could give you such a promise without seeing the proposed changes.

That I can promise you. Feature freeze doesn't affect bugfixes, and Emacs 26.1 is not going to be released tomorrow or the next week.
