This has struck me as unnecessarily restrictive ever since I first bumped up against it. I think that the reoccurring threads on this topic, the availability of awful (and inefficient) hacks to circumvent this restriction, and the presentation here of a legitimate use case are all solid arguments in favor of relaxing it.
So maybe the SC can accept a PRP for this?
I'd be willing to draft a PEP and accompanying implementation if there's a core dev to sponsor it.
