Question PickupSpell Restrictions?

Hi all,

New to addon making, so it could very well be a simple solution or something obvious I am overlooking. When using PickupSpell with SpellID like so...

ClearCursor() PickupSpell(115546) PlaceAction(61) ClearCursor()

I find that there seem to be some restrictions. This was tested on a level 1 Monk.

115546 is Provoke, an ability which all Monks can learn regardless of specialization. When that script is run, the Provoke ability will be inserted into the first slot of the Bottom Left Action Bar, regardless of whether Provoke is actually learned yet. The same format works for Tiger's Palm, which is learned at level 1.

If I try with a specialization specific ability though, like Disable (116095), I can't get the same behavior to occur. I also tried doing this with Diffuse Magic (122783), a talented ability, did not work.

Does anyone know if this is a known restriction? Would it be lifted once the character is actually able to select specializations/talents?
My goal is to be able to have all spells (or at least their placeholders) bindable from level 1.

Thanks for your insights!
