Premet's uniqueness conjecture for primitive ideals of W-algebras

Let g\mathfrak g be a reductive Lie algebra, let ege\in\mathfrak g be nilpotent with orbit O\mathbb O, and let U\mathcal U and W\mathcal W be the corresponding enveloping algebra and W-algebra. Choose an sl2\mathfrak{sl}_2-triple (e,h,f)(e,h,f) and set Q=ZG(e,h,f)Q=Z_G(e,h,f), with component group C(e)=Q/QC(e)=Q/Q^\circ. Let Id(U)\mathfrak{Id}(\mathcal U) and Idfin(W)\mathfrak{Id}_{\mathrm{fin}}(\mathcal W) denote the sets of two-sided ideals of U\mathcal U and finite-codimensional two-sided ideals of W\mathcal W, respectively, and let II\mathcal I\mapsto\mathcal I^\dagger be the map from ideals of W\mathcal W to ideals of U\mathcal U. Define

IdO(U)={JId(U)V(U/J)=O}.\mathfrak{Id}_{\mathbb O}(\mathcal U)=\{\mathcal J\in\mathfrak{Id}(\mathcal U)\mid \operatorname{V}(\mathcal U/\mathcal J)=\overline{\mathbb O}\}.

Premet's uniqueness conjecture. For any primitive JIdO(U)\mathcal J\in\mathfrak{Id}_{\mathbb O}(\mathcal U), the set of primitive ideals IIdfin(W)\mathcal I\in\mathfrak{Id}_{\mathrm{fin}}(\mathcal W) satisfying I=J\mathcal I^\dagger=\mathcal J is a single C(e)C(e)-orbit.

This strengthens the existence conjecture by asserting uniqueness up to the component-group action. The supplied text does not state whether this conjecture has been proved or disproved.
