if that's the case then it actually makes it better - one of the issues with sword spec is that you only get one proc from multiple hits - i.e you whirlwind 4 targets or cleave 2 targets, SS procs 2 or 3 times but you only actually get one extra hit since sword spec gives you an extra hit on your next swing, whereas crit or mace stun would hit 4 targets
alternatively, you could mortal strike a target, hamstring a target, proc sword spec on both but only actually get one sword spec in due to the way the proc used to work (correct me if I'm totally wrong on this, I haven't had all that much experience with sword spec)
I wish we'd get a blue post explaining these things, but I suppose it's probably a work in progress. If it really does return rage then I would guess that they're trying to make sword spec more attractive. This would actually make it genuinely better than poleaxe spec, though
