I think you're the first person to call StringFunctions powerful and fast. (And
if StringFunctions is really the best you can dream up for a fix to the current
wiki templating nightmare, it's quite sad.)

No. Plenty of bugs are open for years without anyone seriously looking at them,
much less working on them and eventually resolving them. This bug is a generic
feature request for Wikimedia wikis. Once that functionality has been
implemented (in two weeks or two decades), this bug can be closed. There's no
rush.
