We'll leave this to the people on the list to decide whether this behaviour should be changed.
Well, from our point of view, it is nice to be able to create maps that are empty at first and not have to worry about populating them until later. This gives us our group the flexibility to plan out in advance how our mounts will look, put the necessary mount points in place during the regular maintenance intervals (by rebooting the systems, something we can't always do), and adding map entries later on as the data is moved to the new location.
Just my two cents.
