Yes it is expected - it is not Apache deciding to run the URL through the rewriting. A redirect will be sent to the client which will then request the new target and it is that which will be run through the rewriting rules.
This is with an internal redirect though, not an external one. No redirect is sent to the client, it's all handled within apache.
In the rewrite logs, you do get: applying pattern applying pattern old path -> new path [INTERNAL REDIRECT] applying pattern applying pattern applying pattern applying pattern new path -> catchall
I would suggest that you'd be better off with rewriting in a Location block and not a Directory. The rewriting relates to the URL and not necessarily the file system.
I'm not suggesting that my current rewriting scheme is optimal, just that things aren't behaving as expected
