It's still true of the cells in the panels. But it's typical these days to add a device between the panels and the DC circuit than can improve the situation (e.g. by cutting the panel out of the circuit if it isn't productively contributing the array's generating capacity at the moment).



So the problem should be corrected at the panel level, but still exists at the cell level?


Yes, the diode behavior is (I believe) a fundamental property of the cells.
