Bug #79040 please merge more temptables

Description:
this merges:
explain select * from ( select * from t1 ) x limit 1;

this does not:
 explain select * from ( select * from t1 group by a ) x limit 1;

this actually ends up scanning whole table, even if outer select would terminate inner select after just one row read: 

mysql> explain select * from ( select * from t1 group by a ) x limit 1;
+----+-------------+------------+------------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+---------+----------+-------+

|  2 | DERIVED     | t1         | NULL       | index | PRIMARY       | PRIMARY | 4       | NULL | 3328256 |   100.00 | NULL  |
+----+-------------+------------+------------+-------+---------------+---------+---------+------+---------+----------+-------+
2 rows in set, 1 warning (0.00 sec)

How to repeat:
this repro is simplification of many different problems we observe in our environment. 
please be nice and don't laugh at it.

CREATE TABLE `t1` (
  `a` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `b` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`a`)
)

select * from ( select * from t1 group by a ) x limit 1;

Suggested fix:
Whatever Evgeny Potemkin showed as proof of concept few years ago.

Hi Mr. Mituzas,

I have studied your report carefully and I have no doubts that this is fully justified feature request, that should get a proper priority.

Verified.

Has it ever got a proper priority for the last 2 years?
