Orbit-product decomposition conjecture with a nontrivial stabilizer

Let O(λ)O(\lambda) and O(μ)O(\mu) be orbits with λ0\lambda\ne 0 and μ0\mu\ne 0. Suppose a stabilizer subgroup of μ\mu is generated by the reflections ri1,,risr_{i_1},\ldots,r_{i_s} corresponding to simple roots αi1,,αis\alpha_{i_1},\ldots,\alpha_{i_s}. If, for each wW/Wλw\in W/W_\lambda, one has

wλ+μ,αj>0for all j{i1,i2,,is},\langle w\lambda+\mu,\alpha_j\rangle>0\quad\text{for all }j\notin\{i_1,i_2,\ldots,i_s\},

then the product decomposes as a union of the corresponding orbits.

Orbit-product decomposition conjecture. Under these hypotheses,

O(λ)O(μ)=wW/WλO(wλ+μ).O(\lambda)\otimes O(\mu)=\bigcup_{w\in W/W_\lambda}O(w\lambda+\mu).

This is one of the paper's conjectures about decomposing products of orbits. The supplied text gives no evidence that it has been resolved.
