It is normal behavior. I just explained it in another post, and also how to conveniently and quickly assign the correct net to vias. They are "no-net" while they are floating, but take on the net of any primitive to which they short when they are placed, if there are no shorts created. This is far more useful than being able to make a default net for vias, and there are workarounds for the latter, i.e, for making a lot of vias with the same net. A piece of track with the right net could cause a whole row of vias placed or copied onto it to take on its net. Or put down a fill, assign it to the net you want, and then put vias down. Then delete the fill. Once the vias have the right net, you can move them wherever you want.
