That's one of the problems, there's not enough "for me" voices. And just the amount of "me too" comments is not the sole criterion I'm afraid. Far from it. The double-vision cursors has been around for much longer with a lot more people complaining. Did it get that bug fixed? No. Is there a workaround? Yes, go to 5.0.x => the chances of it being fixed just dropped dramatically.

Why not? What's so "really important" in the 5.1.22 (or anything after 5.1.10 for that matter) that is more important to you compared to the seamless mode? Any killer features that I missed?

Close, but a more accurate statement would be "something broke between 5.1.8 and 5.1.10". We know exactly when this happened. I guess so do the developers. The "why it isn't fixed yet", well, that's a whole different story. Maybe fixing this might break something else, something that's going to affect a lot more people in far more common situations (I don't know for sure, just speculating).
