I don't know if that's supposed to be a bug.

Normal pages have the same behavior, except that when you can't delete a single
revision but the entire history (unless a special extension is installed). If
you delete a page, then restore some revisions, and then move that page to a
new location, only the current revisions are moved. Deleted ones remain at the
old title since they are unaffected. The same happens with deleted versions of
an image.

I agree that when performing page moves, the logs of the page gets fragmented,
so log entries performed to the old page aren't "renamed" to the new page. This
affects not only deletion logs, but also protection logs and other that may
apply (upload logs, for example). Fixing that hay help to track down those
deletions.

Note that if deleted revisions were renamed with the page, there would be no
way to do merges or splits of page histories using this way. I don't know if
there's an alternative to this currently.
