I don't think it was intentional, i don't remember anyone specifically mentioning it and probably is an inadvertent side affect of another change. I imagine if we went digging we would fine more behavioural inconsistencies. This is the behaviour that's present now in 3.0 so I would say it's probably best to leave it now as it is and document the behaviour as it is currently in the field. Sound reasonable?
