The behavior as specified in the bug report and the comments is
intended.

When installing a package in never mark auto, it is not marked as auto.
On removal, dependencies of it will be

(1) marked as manually if the package was removed as a result of a conflict or 
something
(2) kept as automatic if the package was removed explicitly

The old implementation that just marked all stuff as manual led to the
problem that installing a meta package and explicitly removing it did
not remove any dependencies.
