Yes, that is the current limitation and as of i know, there is no such patch being developed at the moment. I leave it to any of the developers to respond. This cannot be done manually as the new master will not read through from LSN 3 (which is a thing of past unknown to new master) and replication slot at standby is a new one with the latest starting from LSN 4 which, the logical decoder does not know.
