Hello! Any updates on this bug or generally on this patch?

Maybe this patch[1] can go in, as
  - if policies will be persisted, then they should be build by reproducible way
  - if the policies will be removed (and that would be nice) then the code which is this patch 
affected will be removed anyway.
