Yes its intended behaviour.  Networkmanager at the moment works with dhcp
only   its intended  more for laptops where you will be using many
different networks.  it makes it easy to change.  and different networks
have different requirements.  one thing that would be a nice addon.  is if
the dhcp server gives out a proxy server it setsup  iptables rules to
forward all traffic to port 80 and 21 to the proxy server.  so you never
need to configure browsers, etc
