I'm creating a node with pretty strict ACLs so basically after the node is created nobody can read it anymore. Now when I login as a different user and query the main node via

node.hasNode("foo");

it still returns a correct true/false depending on whether the node actually exists. If I call

node.getNode("foo");

I'm getting the (expected) AccessDeniedException.

I've checked the source code and see that hasNode never actually checks any ACLs. Is that the intended behaviour? This is (at least) a minor security risk, isn't it?
