No, first of all it should be fixed to work the way how Edward envisioned it.
See my comments above for the broken behaviour.

Then this bug here should be fixed, i.e. provide a new property to select that
all (even unknown!) streams should be exposed. We can't do that with the
existing expose-all-streams property (==TRUE) because it can easily break
existing code. Nothing expects to get arbitrary unknown streams exposed on
decodebin, only "raw" and known streams are expected.

Also potentially related bug #710444
