It is not a bug. Rehearsal marks are printed at score level and what
you did is just to add them at staff level. Of course if you have only
one staff line in your score, you do not see the difference between
staff level and score level. But if you have two or more staves, the
rehearsal mark is normally printed only at the top of each staff
group. However, for some reason, you may want to have them repeated
above each staff and that's what you asked. But at the same time you
would probably like to remove the mark at score level with:
\context { \Score \remove "Mark_engraver" }.
