[Known] Masterwork failure reduces the +# on items by 1

Title: Masterwork failure reduces the +# on items by 1
Reproduction Rate: 100%
Blocker? No
Details:
This issue may be intentional, but I'm bug reporting it just in case. In addition to the durability loss of the item on failure, the + number on items is also reduced by 1.

This reduction is a bit counterintuitive as the relative power of the item is not changed by the loss of durability. In the second image below, the item has modifiers to be a +7 weapon, but the failures cause it to show as a +3. That being said, I can understand the +1 granted by the Exceptional crafting to be lost after 2 failures, but the additional reductions cause confusion when comparing the power of this item to other +3s.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Craft an exceptional longsword (e.g. +1)
2. Masterwork the sword multiple times
3. Make note of the +# after each attempt and notice how it is reduced by 1 after each failure

Yes, this was reported last week. It had been bugged in JIRA.
