It would be a good thing to fix.

It's moderately hard to test, though.  Easy enough for DVDs and CDs, but
it's harder to take a marker pen to a hard drive.
If it's in the block layer, perhaps using a device mapper error target can help in testing. One could write a table to map an entire partition to a logical volume, then replace it with a table that maps a few sectors to the error target.
