An MR to remove/neuter the script would be a sensible thing to propose.
 https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Contribute has the process.
Funding to implement the functionality correctly would be awesome as
well, if you know an organisation/sovereign nation with budget.  
Your friendly local Samba commercial support provider could be worth a
call in that case.
(To be clear, given the spectacular failure mode, it won't be a quick
fix due to the tests needed and proper tooling required for it to be a
production-ready feature).
