That's exactly the same text as in 3.0, and it was ruled in the FAQ that it only helps against invisible opponents, being flat-footed, or being flanked if you have the improved version.
The bit about being immobilized is so that you can't claim to keep your Dex bonus again invisible attack when you are immobilized. (Which would lead to the odd circumstance of losing your dex bonus if you are immobilized and can see your attacker, but keeping it if you are immobilized but your attacker is invisible.)
Thanks. I should have known to check the FAQ. You'd think that in the process of updating the rules, they'd have bounced the FAQ off of the books to clean up little language issues like this. Eliminating six characters would clear up that whole question.
Good. Now a bluffing rogue has the potential to sneak attack a rogue of higher level ...
