Why do you expect this behavior?  Other shells and utilities typically
do what bash does -- i.e., nothing.

(You're free to argue that bash *should* behave this way, but that's
a feature request, not a bug report.  And having bash automatically
update its working directory based on filesystem changes would open
up its own can of worms.)
