Please fix this age-old defect

The OPTION to stop the pushback is given to the user which is great especially when GSX isn't aware the plane is about to pushback directly into a building behind it.  The problem was, is now and seemingly has always been:  the Marshal doesn't stop but continues walking to presumably where they would stop at were the pushback not manually stopped by the user so you have to wait substantial time really for no good reason.  Here's an example:

I'm curious about another aspect of GSX:  when stairs are in play and the bus of PAX arrives to start loading the plane not until the very last passenger enters the plane does the bus leave.   Are they waiting to see if one of the passengers left their carry on in the bus by accident?  Maybe this is what happens in the RW not sure, but in any case it slows down loading significantly or so it seems.

If you suspect the pushback might eventually go in a building, you'll better do a custom QuickEdit pushback, which will be also saved for that gate for the next time.
