Point being: rarely (if ever) the Daleks trusting them. If anything, it is much more a Dalek behaviour to not trust, and betray than to willingly trust and accept help.

I'd like to point out that when a Dalek allies itself with another species... either the other species is about to get a rude awakening (such as the humans in Victory when they pulled the old "Bracewell's a bomb" trick), or they're very much in control of the situation, such as in Pandorica, where the Daleks were not subservient to any one species.

In this movie, the Daleks are acting untypical, and frankly rather strange. They're subservient to the Joker. As you both say, nothing strange about that... but you'd expect the Daleks to then take control. You'd expect the Daleks to have something up their proverbial sleeves... but... nothing. They were allied to break out of the Phantom Zone? I'm pretty sure they'd have worked something out themselves haha.
