Native launcher does not set current working directory correctly when launching the game

I have a profile that is set to start from "C:\Games\Minecraft\Forge-1.9.4" directory.

But when I start the game, supplementary files (f.e. logs) are created in the "C:\Games\Minecraft" (yes, parent directory, where the launcher is installed).

Which files does the launcher place there that shouldn't be there?

As I said, logs directory created in the parent directory.
For modded Minecraft, some more directories are created with mod settings.
This was never the case for Java launcher.

Not fixed. Working directory still set to the directory of the launcher rather than the game profile directory.

Helloo? Can I have a Christmas gift in the form of a working Minecraft at last, please?

Note that as far as I know, most if not all Mojang employees are on vacation until 2020.
