I like the general idea, but wouldn't applying it to specs mean that certain races are almost always specced in the weapon they get a bonus to? Above and beyond the truism that all giants are axe or mace specs, which isn't actually true, doesn't it seem that if you give people more insentive to go with the traditional combos it'll become incredibly rare to see exceptions? Maybe this is desirable, I dunno, but I like the fact that there are stereotypes, but also a lot of exceptions.
