Is this the expected revert behaviour ?

I believe it does work. What you probably wanted to use is update
instead of revert. The difference is (as I understand) that revert takes
file contents from the revision you specified and puts them into the
current workspace while update (with -C) resets your workspace to the
specified revision. Meaning it also resets the parent of the workspace
while revert does not. Status checks the status against the parent...
