Teemo glitch?

I've noticed something dreadful. My lord and destroyer Teemo is borderline useless. It's not because of the new oracle lense, or the new thunderlord burst meta, oh no. It's the fact that his e does not proc any god damn items ability. I've noticed since a few patches now hoping it get fixed, but to no avail. His e does not actually make use of any item that has an effect from magic damage. Rys scepter, Ludens, or even the mastery death fire. Why is it that other champs like Brand and Anivia get all the benefits from their passive magic damage but Teemo gets nothing but shame. He is already at an extreme disadvantage in this current meta, I think that would be the perfect buff(fix?) he needs. It would make getting spell vamp and other items worth it and put him back as a viable top. Satan is hungry for more corpses =(

Teemo's E has never procced spell effects because it is classified as an on-hit effect, not a spell. His Q and R do and have always worked with spell effects because they are spells. Teemo's E is a passive, not a spell.

It's the same reason spell effects don't proc from Irelia's W, Yi's W, Lich Bane procs, Devourer, Nashor's, MF's old Impure Shots, etc.

However, it's worth noting that Hextech Gunblade will heal for the initial .3 AP on-hit portion of Toxic Shot. There's some sort of non-intuitive distinction between "all damage" and spell vamp, though I'm not sure why all damage includes the initial hit but not the dot.
