Dragon Disciple Claw attacks and glove bonuses
Apparently the EB-based and additional damage from gloves do not carry over to a Dragon Disciple's unarmed attacks. Is this intentional? If it isn't, is this a fixable issue?

I have tested this recently and can confirm.
"monk gloves" when equipped will only give a bonus to attack, it ignores the additional damage from the enhancement.
I have a theory this is likely due to the unarmed attacks of DS claw weapon being slashing, and the gloves being bludgeoning. I believe this is the case because using a Greater Magic weapon spell will add slashing damage to DD unarmed attacks.
However, on top of that, all additional damage properties on gloves that I've tested do not work. For example a 1d4 slashing or sonic +2 bonus will not be transfer.
