No, this is a bug.

It has been discussed.  Originally the target were so simple it was
easy to generate a new table line.  Creating copies of the table
params only happened recently with the more complicated targets.  We
could have some infrastructure provided by the dm core for this, but
we can't use it blindly as your bug above demonstrates.
