The "buglet" should have been fixed back in June 
[https://github.com/TeXworks/texworks/commit/33a137662f3b68d7b03e47f547ea816186461892]. 
So the current "development version" of TeXworks should work as 
intended. Could you perhaps check?

Regarding the feature request: as you may have noticed (from me not 
committing/posting much recently) I currently have extremely little time 
to work on TeXworks, unfortunately. I hope this will get better 
eventually, but if someone else wants to implement this feature request 
(or others) in the meantime and send a pull request that is always welcome!

HTH,
Stefan
