2 serious bugs (Mat scaling and VideoCapture::set) still active?

I realized that 2 issues I issued to OpenCV that seem important to me don’t seem to be taken into account since years:

Since I (and maybe a few others) know about that, I avoid OpenCV code for these purpose. Which is sad, as OpenCV is very fast. But if I can’t rely on the results… Most users will use the functions without knowing they are wrong.

I wonder if there could be done something to enhance the situation.

I had a look at the code myself… but no chance: well beyond my scope.
