In short yes it could be, and it is likely to be a bug. The directory is created by logind. There have been lots of bugs in this area where because a user isn't ‘logging in’ in the normal sense, the directory doesn't get created, eg: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=753882 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=967509 If you can come up with an easy reproducer for the bug, I think you should file it.
