digitalmars.D.learn - Is it intended behavior? (modules / packages)

Recently I've played a little bit with 'package' attribute and found 
something what is a bit strange for me.

I have following directory structure:

root
|-A
| |-module1
|
|-B
   |-module2


It is currently possible to define:

in module1:
---
module A.module1;

import B.module2;
(...)
---

and have in file module2 defined:
---
module A.module2; // please notice package which is different than real.
(...)
---

I like current behavior because module2 have package access to modules 
in package A, but I just wonder if it is not a bug and will be removed 
in future.
