I'd house-rule this in an instant, for the reasons I state above. It's an elegatn solution. I would probably force a Per roll to execute this in combat, maybe a perception-based weapon skill roll, but I'd definitely allow it.

I'm not saying your quotation of RAW is wrong. It's just something that feels like a change would be a good addition to a fighter's capabilities.
