Weapon Mastery + Dagger Mastery: only one P. Power bonus

Either the talent is buggy, or description is misleading. It says:
Increases Physical Power by 12 and increases weapon damage by 25% when wielding daggers.
I'm playing a marauder and whielding a mace and a dagger. I only get Physical Power bonus once, from Weapons Mastery. No bonus from Dagger Mastery. I tested it further by unlearning talent point and it turns out only the bonus from the main hand weapon is added. If I wield mace in main and dagger in off, I only get P.Power from Weapons and unlearning Dagger Mastery (dagger in the off hand) only lowers damage, not P.Power. It doesn't even use max(dagger P.Power, weapon P.Power). Dagger Mastery P.Power bonus has no effect until I have a dagger in main hand.
I think bonuses from both weapon categories should count. It would fit marauder theme, and spending 10 points total on weapon skills is a big enough tradeoff to justify the double P.Power bonus.
