It is intentional.  The reality is that there are always SRUs targeted to
the point release that are landing up to the very last minute.  So the best
way to get an image for testing that most closely approximates what will
ship as the point release is to keep -proposed enabled for building, at
least while these SRUs are still in progress.

As Adam says, once the known critical path SRUs are through into -updates,
the image builds will be switched over.
