What change did you have in mind?  AFAICT, no specific change was
proposed in that bug report.

The advantage of the current method is that Dired and 'ls' display the
lock file right near the file that is locked, at least on most systems
and with the default file sorting order.  If the change proposal will
order them far apart, it would be a disadvantage.
