Address Name from Billing info for event multiple purchases w no Contact ID

Database has a bunch of Address records where the Address Name field is a person's name from a Credit Card - which aligns with what dgg said here
http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,9951.msg42990.html

In this case seems the purchase on one card was made for several Participants.

The Billing Address with Address Name (cc owner's name) is being added to all the Participants

So if John Doe paid for 2 tickets on his credit card - for him and Mary, then  Mary ends up with a Billing Address with Address Name = John Doe

Assuming that is correct behaviour (though it seems to create lots of confusion for users as Mary how has an address that has nothing to do with her)

then what I am also seeing is that there are a bunch of Address records with an Address ID that is one larger that have no Contact ID, that are almost a replica of the above, though the Address Name is more likely to have JohnDoe in it, than John Doe.

Is this expected?
