Looking at the LineageOS commit history, it seems seems this has been fixed [0], reverted [1] due to compatibility issues, then unreverted again [2] but only for the latest Android versions. If I'm reading the commits right, someone at Google was involved, so this might be in the official Google build now.

As Lineage is concerned I found that a while ago and made https://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/android_packages_mo... But no one bothered to test, and I had no way to verify so it's in a limbo for now :)

It's always a mix of things people report to us, things someone randomly pick up, but then we need real users testing them out lol
