An unanswered question regarding elemental (and other) races.

This came up a few times early in the playtest that I never saw addressed.

Many races have a racial feature that gives them something along the lines of 'gain +2 charisma for sorcerer if you have the appropriate bloodline.' A few of them even get bonuses to divine casting if they have an appropriate domain.

Would an Ifrit bloodrager get an effective cha bonus to casting if he has takes the elemental fire bloodline? What about a warpriest with a fire blessing?

I can honestly see it going either way. To be clear, this playtest finally makes me a little excited to use my Ifrit boon in PFS. I think an Ifrit Bloodrager could be a lot of fun; for that matter I could probably make an Ifrit Warpriest work well with a bit of effort, too. I'm hoping for a clear answer; otherwise I'll probably just default the Ifrit into a Swashbuckler or Skald (neither of which would leave me particularly broken up).

I've gone and rescanned the old threads, but there's a lot of material; please forgive me if my google fu is weak and this really has been addressed.

For the purpose of the playtest I would assume no. But in your survey you might want to point that out as something that should be clarified. Or even broaden it to "do bloodrager bloodlines act as sorcerer bloodlines in reguards to other things, such as racials or class features?"
