That would seem to indicate that the change in the conversion rate of melee hit rating that has been noticed on live (only needing ~246 to cap at 80) is intended and will carry over up to 85. Previously, capping melee hit gave you ~11% spell hit, so an additional 6% was enough to cap spells as well as melee, but on live, capped melee hit +6% leaves you somewhat short of capping spells.
