It is intentional. The aim is consistency.

For a table object in the document tree, it should not matter whether it was
created with a grid-table, a csv-table or a list-table. 

The Docutils doctree and the native Docutils XML always have paragraphs
in table cells.
The html4css1 writer stripped paragraph elements in some cases in lists and
table cells, because "styling away" the leading and trailing vertical space
is impossible/complicated with CSS1. However, with CSS2 this is no longer a
problem.
