It is Fedora policy to not do that:

I know this and I don't like it when there is a broken package in use on Fedora with submitted bug reports related to the broken features. This is why I would like to see it changed.

That really depends on the importance of the broken features vs the risk of changes introducing new problems. You should recognize that trade-off. If a fix can be provided in a targeted way, there is no need to change any policy here. It cannot be a free for all type of deal
