You're right, this is something we're aware of but haven't had time to 
fix yet.

Yes, makes sense too.

Unfortunately I'm already backlogged with integrating several 
contributions and bug fixes, so you shouldn't expect these problems to 
be corrected very soon from our side.

I you want to tackle these problems, however, you're most welcome to 
try it. Please ask questions on the jfor-devel mailing list if you have 
any.

Hope this helps!
