Leaping Attack (Ex)
At 5th level, when a mobile fighter moves at least 5 feet prior to attacking, he gains a +1 bonus on attack and damage rolls. This bonus increases by +1 for every four levels beyond 5th.
So I'm a mobile fighter and at the beginning of my turn I take a 5 foot step to meet the requirements for Leaping Attack. How long do I get the bonus for?
1. Just the very next attack?
2. All my attacks for my turn?
3. All my attacks until my next turn?
I don't think it's (1), because that would be a horrible drawback and would gimp the archetype completely. So it's either (2) or (3). Anyone have any idea?

It's technically unspecified, so you could likely interpret it how you want. I'd wager that it's quite likely the intent was for the bonus to affect all attacks that round, but that's not really easily proved. Rule however you deem it to make the most sense or be the most balanced if you're the DM. Otherwise, ask your DM. ;-)
And as an aside, the name of the ability doesn't matter. You don't have to actually leap, and that doesn't mean it only applies to a single attack.
