Indirectly linked Test Cases (Test Suite's only linked) to Test Plans do not list the "Parent Test Plan(s)" in the Test Case view

In RQM v4.0.2 / higher. The "Parent Test Plan(s)" on the Test Case view do not show any linked test plans if :
* the Test Cases are not directly assigned to the Test Plans i.e., only Test Suites (which in turn contain Test cases) are linked to the Test Plan.
Is this an expected behavior?
Shouldn't the Test Plans linked to the Test Cases in the Test Suite linked with the Test Plan(s) be displayed in "Parent Test Plan(s)" area of the Test case view?

It's works as design. In Test Case view, we only show the "Parent Test Plan" when the test cases in the test plan directly.
For my understanding, if the test cases are adding to the Test Suites which adding to the test plan, we should also add the test cases in the test plan, then we can make the consistence.
