Blight and Blight of contagion

Do we have any idea if the damage from a normal Blight skill gem and the Blight of Contagion skill gem can stack?

At 20/20, the normal Blight gem has a base damage of 284 stacking up to 20 times, where the Blight of Contagion has a base damage of 621.2, but only stacks up to 5 times. So they don't really feel like the same stacks.

And if they can't stack, how do they decide which stacks deals damage?

No confirmation but doubt they will stack. Once you apply stack of one, you wont be able to apply stacks of other one untill those are gone.

That would be bummer :(

Or possibly you could stack both and whichever does the most damage per second counts. That is how current ignite and bleed work, you can have hundreds of ignites on one enemy but only one counts. But those are ailments so not sure.
