I would like to second this.

This feels like it should be a priority update - it’s been 9 days now since it was first reported but no further update other than Blizz acknowledging the issue. Very disappointing.

Nope still not fixed.
Final Verdict + Hammer of Light still don’t benefit from it and I do more damage without wings than with wings.
(There is also a video on YouTube of Lvladen PvP, he shows it pretty well).
