@InjectMocks ignores @Mock's name of generic type

When injecting two fields of the same type with @InjectMocks, the @Mock's name is not taken into account.

java

public class Foo {
    Bar<Integer> f1;
    Bar<Boolean> f2;

    public Foo(Bar<Integer> f1, Bar<Boolean> f2) {
        this.f1 = f1;
        this.f2 = f2;
    }
}

java

interface Bar<T> {
}

java

@RunWith(MockitoJUnitRunner.class)
public class FooTest {

    @Mock(name = "f1")
    Bar<Integer> f1;

    @Mock(name = "f2")
    Bar<Boolean> f2;

    @InjectMocks
    Foo foo;

    @Test
    public void test() {
        System.out.println(foo.f1);
        System.out.println(foo.f2);
    }
}

Expected result: f1 mock --> f1, and f2 mock --> f2. Actual result: f1 mock is getting injected into both fields.
