The one I couldn't remember I believe was from Yoshida, I looked hard for the source but couldn't find it. But he said something along the lines of "to unlock, say warrior. you would have marauder 30 and gladiator 15 to have the abilities from gladiator". Weather that means your locked to GLA only or not who knows.
My guess is he was responding to the first part.

We have 10 cross class abilities, we get 6 job abilities, that leaves us with 4 cross class abilities. I don't see why they would lock them to only the classes that unlock the job, so I assume the simplest explanation is the right one.
