We already have this downside (in many parts of GDB, not only in this particular situation), so continuing with that won't be a change for the worse. If glibc maintainers actively fight the debugger's ability to debug their code, we will never succeed in catching up with them. So I'd rather they stopped with that attitude and started cooperating with us. I can ask RMS to try to influence the glibc team, if you think this will help.
