Yes it seems, but if you look from a different perspective then this
behaviour makes sense.
Just compare cut/paste with drag&drop and then it's clear, that if you d&d a
cell. then you intend that formulas are kept including the d&d'ed cell.
It's arguable if cut&p should be equal to d&d and not like cut&p equal to
copy&p.
But as the other spreadsheet apps use this definition, I'm fine with it.

The downside here, is that the current implementation doesn't make it easy
to differenciate between cut&paste, copy&paste and d&d, as there is currently
one paste opperation only.
