Is your feature request related to a problem?

I am currently playing a full fire convert exsanguinate elementalist as well as a bleed full phys cobra lash gladiator. The weapon passives in PoB are in red text so I'm assuming that it's a feature that is either currently being worked on and is non-functional or is not currently being worked on. These missing functionalities make it very hard to correctly plan out and make build choices.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would just like these and other damage conversion passives from the new weapon passives to function in PoB.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I've tried to put in custom modifiers on these items to make them do in PoB what they do in game but I failed to do it properly, if it's even possible to change the skill interactions with item modifiers.

Additional context

Both damage portions of exsanguinate remain physical in PoB, and it isn't updated by all relevant talents.

Cobra Lash doesn't un-convert the chaos damage so it throws off all of the bleed calculations/weighting

Thanks for your time, and thanks for all of your efforts with PoB. I really enjoy the application.
