Containment work on Epic attacks?

I know, I know, I am t3h n00bx0rZ! As a four year veteran of contorller si already feel embarassed just for asking. But while experimenting with builds, I recently noticed that MId's Hero Designer was not adding the containment damage to my epic attacks. Since none of my characters currently have anciliary power pool attack powers (blackwand FTW) I can't test it.

Im curious - is this a glitch in Mid's Hero Designer (which seems to have frankly fallen a little behind the times in terms of updates lately), or does containment actually not affect APP attacks? The former asnwer seems a lot more likely to me than the latter, but it never can hurt to make certain.

It must be a bug. APP attacks definitely do get the full benefit of containment, with the exception of Ice Storm, which gets the bonus on cold damage but not lethal damage.
