A curious kind of question. It's not one of those things that can be "attempted" - you either do it, or don't, and it would be in its entirety not done a bit at a time. The cause of it in a sense is known, we know why it happens in the general principles of the algorithms Corona is built upon, so we know what it would take to fix it (in broad terms) and we know how complex and long that would be.
So this question is rather like knowing that something arises due to the foundation of a building, and so knowing that to fix it would involve closing the building and tearing a lot of the building down and then having to build it differently, and then asking "Has any attempt been made to fix it?". No - because we'd have to close the building, tear a lot of it down, and rebuild it differently. This is not just a problem in an isolated part of the code, where you can try a rewrite or workaround or two, but is down on the foundations that everything else is then built upon.
