Convolution exhaustion conjecture for mirabolic character sheaves

From papers

Let DD be a vector space, and let VV and WW be vector spaces with dim(V)+dim(W)=dim(D)\dim(V)+\dim(W)=\dim(D). Let \CG\calC(GL(V))\CG\in\calC(\operatorname{GL}(V)) and \CG\calC(GL(W))\CG'\in\calC(\operatorname{GL}(W)), and let Ql{{\underline{\overline{\mathbb Q}}}{}_l} denote the unique equivariant mirabolic character sheaf for the zero-dimensional vector space. Convolution exhaustion conjecture. Any irreducible \Gm\Gm-equivariant mirabolic character sheaf on GL(D)×D\operatorname{GL}(D)\times D is isomorphic to

\CGQl\CG\CG*{{\underline{\overline{\mathbb Q}}}{}_l}*\CG'

for some such \CG\CG and \CG\CG'. This asserts that all irreducible equivariant mirabolic character sheaves arise from the convolution construction; the supplied text gives no evidence that the conjecture has been resolved.
