Yes, it is, at least on ath5k. And as jouni has pointed out recently this 
behaviour is expected by hostapd (maybe not for beacons but for probe 
request/response frames, i dont know).

Gabor Stefanik proposed a while ago that frames should only be modified by the 
driver in cooked monitor mode (COOK_FRAMES), that way we could avoid defining 
new radiotap flags. What's your view on that, Jouni?
