Duplicate of #12237

@Snuffleupagus thanks for the quick response. Could you let me know, please, when you're going to fix the issue #12237? I wondered because you've lived with that for more than 4 years.

@sergey-goryushko if you want to help us and all pdf.js users by stopping the counter at 4 years instead of letting it go to 5 or 6, you're welcome to contribute a fix!

Jokes aside, there are no immediate plans to fix that issue, we are working on other things at the moment. So, we can't let you know when we're going to fix it. We do, however, happily accept contributions!
