I can't speak for the developers, but I doubt this will be fixed.
It's more likely an alternative mapping method will replace the
current Circular (Marked Up) map which doesn't scale well to large
numbers of hosts.

There are alternative maps available now as add-ons for Nagios, for
example NagVis includes an automap feature which might fit the bill.
