I made some experiments, and I can confirm your observation: only the first file in the IMPLICIT_DEPENDS list gets added. Further, the documentation is inaccurate and doesn't mention that the language has to be prepended to every single file (i.e. <lang> <file> pairs). Currently I don't quite understand how the whole thing works...
