Software Updates Manager leaves my plug-in in ./plugins after deinstallation. [message #330211]

Good day!
Ganymede, Linux.
I've developed plug-in, simple feature and update-site for installation
and installed it; then I've uninstalled my plug-in. Corresponding
feature-directory was removed from ./features, but plug-in itself
(.jar-file) wasn't removed physically from ./plugins.
However, plug-in doesn't work after deinstallation.
(In Eclipse Europe 3.3 this plug-in was removed physically after
deinstallation.)
Why does Software Updates Manager leaves my plug-in in ./plugins directory
after deinstallation?
Is it BUG? Or it's feature?
If it's feature, is documentation for this behaviour, is it described
somewhere?
