Hi thanks for this report and sorry for delayed reply.
I've talked with some of the SE folks, and this is on their radar. Unfortunately, as you noticed there's no non-hacky way to fix this on my side. The "best" way would be my own post-processing mod after SE post-processing, but even that seems like it could create more problems than it solves in the long run, especially for something like this.
If more issues like this occur, I'm willing to revisit that decision, but it's one I very much don't want to be hasty about.
Now -- I think an "unofficial patch" type mod listed by a different modder isn't necessarily a bad idea in the meantime, since it wouldn't have the same official feel as something like a "BZ postprocessing" mod would. Not ideal I know :(
