Refined Lefschetz formula with continuous-spectrum multiplicities

Let aR,+\mathfrak a_{\mathbb R}^{*,+} be the positive dual cone, let aR,+\overline{\mathfrak a_{\mathbb R}^{*,+}} be its closure, and let 1aR,+\mathbf 1_{\overline{\mathfrak a_{\mathbb R}^{*,+}}} denote its indicator function. Let c(χ,η,P,ν,π)Zc(\chi,\eta,{\cal P},\nu,\pi)\in\mathbb Z be the coefficients from the integral-trace conjecture. Refined Lefschetz formula. The Lefschetz formula holds with

NΓ,cont(π,λ)=1aR,+(λ)χ,η,P,νc(χ,η,P,ν,π).N_{\Gamma,\rm cont}(\pi,\lambda)=\mathbf 1_{\overline{\mathfrak a_{\mathbb R}^{*,+}}}(\lambda)\sum_{\chi,\eta,{\cal P},\nu}c(\chi,\eta,{\cal P},\nu,\pi).

This would identify the continuous-spectrum correction multiplicities in the Lefschetz formula with the integer trace coefficients arising from Arthur's distributions. The source gives no proof or resolution of this refinement.
