It seems to be a deliberate design decision.  Whether it's a *correct*
deliberate design decision is a matter of opinion. :-)  I suspect the
idea is that you may want to set several faces on the same region,
which would be annoying to reestablish (I guess C-x C-x would do the
trick, so it's not *that* annoying), while C-g should cancel the
region.

You may also wish to change your setting of
`unshifted-motion-keys-deselect-region'.

If behavior is still annoying, submit a bug report.
