Could you legally use the Gloves of Dueling (+2 to Weapon Training Bonus) on the ACG Swashbuckler? Although this might change when the class is released, right now its Swashbuckler Weapon Training class feature is a carbon copy of conventional Weapon Training, and yet it never refers to itself as Weapon Training or states that it is a substitute for the Fighter's class feature, while the Gloves of Dueling specifically say they improve the Weapon Training class feature. Does that extend to variants like the Swashbuckler's?

EDIT: I guess I should include the relevant information.

At 5th level, a swashbuckler gains a +1 bonus on attack and damage rolls with one-handed or light piercing melee weapons. While wielding such a weapon, she gains the benefit of the Improved Critical feat. These attack and damage bonuses increase by 1 for every four levels beyond 5th level (to a maximum of +4 at 17th level).

These supple gloves grant the wearer a +4 bonus to her CMD against disarm attacks, attempts to sunder her wielded weapons, and effects that cause her to lose her grip on her weapons (such as grease). The wearer doesn’t drop held weapons when panicked or stunned. If the wearer has the weapon training class feature and is using an appropriate weapon, her weapon training bonus increases by +2.
