It's not a bug. The style applies to a row which is never rendered because it has no data in it. IMO.
This is the unfortunate kind of reasoning that arises from having syntax which is a thin layer on top of someone else's syntax (HTML).
So, we treat this:
{| |- |- |foo |}
as valid syntax not because it's useful or meaningful, but because it produces syntactically valid HTML. That goes pretty much against the philosophy of most other aspects of wikitext: we generally go with what's useful and meaningful.
Well, I can't criticise too much. It does work, after all :)
