Chevalley restriction conjecture for the commuting quotient

Let GG be a reductive group with Lie algebra g{\mathfrak g}, let t{\mathfrak t} be a Cartan subalgebra, let WW be the Weyl group, and let CGd{\mathfrak C}^d_G be the scheme of commuting dd-tuples in g{\mathfrak g}. The inclusion tdCGd{\mathfrak t}^d\to{\mathfrak C}^d_G induces a morphism

td\sslashWCGd\sslashG.{\mathfrak t}^d\sslash W\to {\mathfrak C}^d_G\sslash G.

Chevalley restriction conjecture. This morphism is an isomorphism. Equivalently, the categorical quotient CGd\sslashG{\mathfrak C}^d_G\sslash G is reduced and normal. The source records this as a conjecture and supplies no resolution.
