This is by design. For raster data we don't have the ability to extract
multiple rasters from a single source, the store-layer relationship is
always 1-1

It is sure annoying and there has been some work towards the direction
of have a "true" coverage store, but the changes API wise are not trivial and
would require quite a bit of work.
If anyone is interested in contributing towards that direction please let
us know.
