I agree. It should be solved. I think the best way is to get an example project that tests the different print scenarios. I spent some time working with printing and it was overly complex but eventually got it to work.
If you create an example like this, http://www.judahfrangipane.com/examples/webview/WebViewExamples.fxp, then you can send it to me or anyone else on who wants to help if you have any issues. If we can get all the cases to work then the problem we need to solve would be how to simplify it.
