VM template does not override the Joomla's one in j1.6 up

When I set the default template for e-shop or any other template override, nothing happens. The reason is that a backward compatible method setTemplate() is actually not called on the JSite instance in .../helpers/shopfunctionsf.php on line 382. Instead, the code sets a property named 'setTemplate' that is no longer used in Joomla 1.6 and up (line 476, username: anonymous):

$mainframe->set('setTemplate', $template);

VirtueMart Version:
1.9.8M and remains till 2.0 beta 3

Joomla/Mambo Version:
1.6 and up

Proposed fix(es):
Replace the line in question with:

$mainframe->setTemplate($template);

Bugtracker task #:
Not submitted yet.

When the change is applied, it works correctly.

The problem is still there in 2.0.0 stable (also in the Development Version trunk). I am just a little surprised that such a crucial issue hasn't been fixed yet.
