Bonus roll, bad luck protection

I've read they are going to implement an increased likelihood of an item dropping based on how many bonus rolls in a row result in no dropped gear. What I'd like to know is if this increased likelihood will apply to both the initial and bonus rolls or only bonus rolls in the future? It would seem advantageous if it only applied to bonus rolls as you could use them on the bosses with a specific item. If I was looking to complete a tier set and missed say 5 bonus rolls in a row, if I focused my bonus rolls to just the bosses that drop the tier gear it may improve my chances of acquiring that loot, which would be cool.
I'm glad they are addressing the drop rate since they won't reveal what they actually are. In addition to this I would like them to address the drop rate of the same item after x number of times. If you have a unique equip trinket that has dropped 5 times, what's the point of the extra four other than to get some gold? The same thing applies to being dual-wield and having more than two of the same weapon. If you have two of the same weapon either equipped or in your inventory, it would be cool if it reduced the chance of that weapon dropping and in turn increased the chance of all other items dropping from that particular boss equally.

Bonus Roll
Protection for bad luck streaks have been added to bonus rolls. Each bonus roll that does not provide loot has a progressively better chance to award loot to the player.
From the PTR patch notes.
I read that as bonus roll only.
Which is good and bad for me, I guess. As someone who has pretty awful luck on rolls, it would be nice if it worked on normal rolls too, but I can also see how being able to "load your dice" for specific bosses would be nice.

Of course it doesnt say that it still wont give you a duplicate of an item or somthing thats not an upgrade instead of what your looking for.
If the protection isnt per bag/coin type isnt this a disincentive to spending coins in lower tier raids?
