AFAIK the proper fix would be to separate comctl32, so we have both

Probably, however current maintainer seems to prefer to postpone this forever.
What makes you say that?
I don't see this as a being worked on target, am I missing something?
While I understand your frustration, I would like to point out that there are plenty of winapi features that aren't being worked on, but that doesn't mean they're delayed forever.
You've probably got me wrong, there's no any frustration at all. It's nice to have a patch accepted to main tree, but that's certainly not a requirement any longer at least for me. As for this particular patch it seems to me that the concern about possible regressions is mostly a speculation, while as was originally stated the patch fixes at least one real application.
