The perk will often need to specify which psi power it works under, where that isn't obvious, or more than one is an option (e.g. Push might be listed as 'Psychokinetic Warrior (Push)' or 'Psychic Warrior (Biokinesis: Push)'). Some cinematic skills or techniques may require a full advantage rather than just a perk, such as Precognitive Parry; in such cases this perk is not needed, though depending on the character, a Special Exercises perk for that psi ability might be recommended.


Thoughts?
There's already a perk for this - Supernatural Warrior from Martial Arts: Yrth Fighting Styles. It allows Trained by a Master et al through a power source, but you only need one perk for all cinematic skills or techniques that can be justified by the power source. Different skills would still fall under different psi powers for purpose of talent bonuses.
