Problem with Sorcerer bonus spell slots

I discovered after making a sorcerer that there appears to be a problem with the bonus spell slots mechanic, at least as it applies to sorcerers. I haven't tried it for other spell casting classes so I don't know if it's a bug for them too.
The bug is that if you have an item equipped which gives a bonus spell slots and unequip the item then re-equip it, you don't get that bonus spell slot back. Even worse, if you unequip it again, it removes ANOTHER spell slot which you don't get back, which allows it to reduce your spell slots for that level to zero solely through repeatedly equipping and unequipping a bonus spell slot item.
This has to be a bug since unequipping an item with bonus spell slots should ONLY remove the bonus spell slots, and if no bonus spell slots have been granted, unequipping the item should not have an effect on the current spell slots.
I presume this bug came about due to the idea that the sorcerer has to rest after equipping the item before they get the bonus spell slots. The mistake was in not keeping track of whether or not the bonus spell slots have been prepared, and whether or not they have already been used (or removed).
