I have been doing the workaround someone mentioned earlier for quite some time. After speaking with customer support, they quickly refer you to a paid resolution. This is only my opinion, but quite a few customizable options are slowly being removed from Shopify, and solutions are now with paid developers.
Perhaps to create more revenue, Shopify has an agreement with developers willing to pay Shopify a fee to promote their services to its members. Shopify does not have to spend as much on in-house development and can increase revenue allowing other developers to do the work while getting a kickback to promote their applications. This allows Shopify to increase revenue on both sides.
