\addlyrics always adds to first staff

When using \addlyrics more than once, it sets the second lyrics to the first staff. Is this a design decision?

When I have two Staffs and I like both of them to have lyrics I thought I'd simply do:
\score {
  \StaffGroup {
    <<
      \new Staff { \sopranoMusic }
      \addlyrics { \sopranoLyrics }
      \new Staff { \altMusic }
      \addlyrics { \altLyrics }
    >>
  }
}
But then the \altLyrics just follow the soprano music, instead of the alt music, as I would have expected. It doesn't matter if the \addlyrics{} is inside or outside the \new Staff{} braces.

Should I report this as a bug?

Kind regards,

Arjan Bos

And even if you weren't virtuous, as you had been brought up to understand the term, you did like to see virtue in other people, provided it didn't cost you anything.
