You are right. It's not an issue concerning compliance with ODF.
The actual behaviour is, however, not reasonable. 
WHY should additional parts of text returned by another operand in the formula
be considerd to belong to the URL (or similar target expression)? The second
parameter is not, after all, and something advetently to be appended to the URL
can be placed in the first parameter position. 
Thus I would still call this a bug. It may, however, be seen as feature request
/ enhancement. It should just be fixed.
