Aschenbrenner–Friedl–Wilton's virtual-retract conjecture for fully relatively quasiconvex subgroups

Let MM be a mixed manifold, and equip π1M\pi_1M with its natural relatively hyperbolic structure. A subgroup HH of π1M\pi_1M is fully relatively quasiconvex if it has the property specified by the source's definition. A virtual retract is a subgroup that is a retract of a finite-index subgroup containing it.

Aschenbrenner–Friedl–Wilton's conjecture. If HH is a fully relatively quasiconvex subgroup of π1M\pi_1M, then HH is a virtual retract. In particular, HH is separable.

This conjecture concerns subgroup separability in the relatively hyperbolic structure naturally associated with mixed 3-manifold groups. The source attributes it to Aschenbrenner, Friedl, and Wilton and does not state that it has been resolved.
