I think we should give this fix a chance...sInce this is solving 2 long-standing issue where setBackground() contract is not honoured plus causing no regression to existing tests.
If we do find any testcase with "shape" in future from open community or any other related testcase being failed for this fix, we can always work on it (or at the least roll back this)
