If that's the established favorite, then I'd say the chances should be fairly good. I suggest filing a bug report (you can use M-x report-emacs-bug), preferably with a patch; you can then track its status at . Emacs is in feature-freeze right now, in preparation for Emacs 24, so any change wouldn't happen right away.
