Arggh! Bad, bad, very bad!
Heh, I'm asking this because I was running some swarms (vulnerable 10 close and area attacks) that were then made vulnerable to all and vulnerable to... something else... I forget what.
And I was like 'Wait, does all of this apply?' and I let it do so for the game cause whatever, but I still figured I'd bring it up here.

Which is one thing that makes it far different from ongoing damage, since using a Frost weapon while inflicting ongoing 5 fire doesn't mean you take 10 damage when it becomes ongoing 5 fire and cold. It just means it gets past resistance more easily.
Multiattacks are also getting much more powerful with vulnerabilities. They are too powerful already.
So given a theoretical at will that does 1d8 + str damage and applies 5 ongoing damage, with a cold weapon I'd have it do 1d8 + str cold damage and apply 5 untyped ongoing. This way you can't turn your cold weapon on and off to stack the ongoing damage (untyped + cold ongoing damage will stack, whereas untyped + untyped or cold + cold wouldn't).
