But isn't it working as expected? Not explicitly setting a session
password just means that a blank password is set, not that there isn't a
session password... (Not that I've actually looked at the code,
though...)

Why? If a session password is not matched, how do you or your system
know where it is actually coming from? (And I'll note, btw, that I use
session passwords even with local points...)
OTOH; how it actually works should certainly be in the documentation...
