Indeed this is the policy. See [1] for details. I'm not aware of an
exception in your case, and I'd assume there isn't one unless somebody
else responds.

So it sounds like the behaviour you've observed is either a bug or a
misconfiguration, and you should proceed accordingly. I would start by
finding steps to reproduce the issue on a fresh install (eg. inside a
VM).
