Android: ListView non-enabled items draw invisible divider

Question

If I have a ListView with two different kinds of items, enabled and disabled ones (meaning selectable and non-selectable), Android draws a small divider correctly between the enabled items, but not between disabled items. Instead it draws a transparent divider, which causes really bad design issues. This has already been discussed here (Google Groups), but without any solution.

What I'm looking for is a way to force Android to draw the same divider which is being used between enabled items also to being used between disabled items instead of just leaving a transparent space.

I've run into this problem as well and it saddens me that that is supposed to be the expected behavior. The only solution I can think of is to draw the dividers yourself by creating your own adapter that automatically adds them where appropriate.
