Unfortunately yes, that has been the trend I see time and time again. Not always totally ignoring the issue, but often not responding to posts about the issue.
This is not totally being ignored though, if you look at release notes there have been a number of fixes to try and mitigate the issue. They might not call it out directly but anything with reconnect or DNS changes is potentially for this issue.
Since the crowd is getting restless, I can tell you that based on a separate private conversation, I know this is high on the staff's list of community driven issues needing attention.
