Where are the +healing numbers above players?

The Burning Crusade Beta is currently missing +healing combat text above players heads. When you heal a friendly player or unit there is no +healing number above their model.

Here is a youtube video from May 2008 where this can be seen, check the green +healing numbers above the arena partner at the timestamp: https://youtu.be/dc0WrORiHmM?t=99

Additionally, here are the interface options from the original 2.4.3 client, showing the toggle for healing combat text: https://i.imgur.com/XQb5J5o.png

Is this a known issue and are there any plans to fix it?

(I reported this bug on the beta very early but there is still no fix in sight)

EDIT: In fact it seems as if they copied the floatingcombattextcombat cvars from classic and forgot to add the following:
floatingCombatTextCombatHealing (Display amount of healing you did to the target)

In original TBC 2.4.3, the cvar was named as CombatHealing, the above is the modern retail version accomplishing the same goal.

This looks like it was fixed, and the fix was pushed to the PTR yesterday.

It should be good to go for the patch next week.
