We have done some major improvements to API Manager's Data publisher. These fixes will be included in 1.4.0 release, which will be ready by end of April.
We are planning to push preview releases from this week on wards. I am not particularly sure if the mentioned issue is fixed by now. However We have made this a blocker for 1.4.0 release. Hence, if not fixed by now it will be taken up soon. We will be updating the JIRA issue with progress.
