At least, this behavior has been in Vim for a very long time, so it's
highly unlikely that Bram changes it, as people or plugins may rely on
that.

Do you have a concrete problem? In my opinion, discussing this on a
purely theoretical level rarely leads to something. If you post your
actual issue, I think we can find a solution.
I usually use :imap instead of :inoremap, and then the abbreviation gets
expanded. (I think you're aware of that and referred to it as
"non-recursively mapped".) So far, I haven't had any problems with that;
you only have to be careful now that the {rhs} gets remapped, and that
can be controlled via subordinate :inoremap'ed <SID>IntermediateMappings
(but not for the first inserted character).
