Dranei hit bonus and pets

It seems the Dranei racial 1% hit buff is not applying to pets. Is this by design or a bug?

If it is by design, it really doesn't make sense to be a dranei if you play hunter as you'd need to stack the extra hit for pet maxing anyway...
I'm still not sure why they removed it from a party aura. Makes me sad.
I'm assuming that is the case. I don't mind it not being raid-wide, but it should be on the pet.

Am thinking about changing to worgen, but trying to be a little patient to see fi the issue gets resolved.
