Yes, this is actually the expected behavior. If netplan is configured to
use the systemd-networkd backend for a given network interface (i.e. as
set up by a default server installation) the "graphical UI"
(NetworkManager) will ignore that interface; otherwise there would be
conflicts
As you mentioned this can be changed by adopting the netplan
configuration in /etc/netplan/*.yaml, defining the NetworkManager
renderer, after which the interface will be handled by NM and can be
controlled through the "graphical UI" and other NetworkManager tools,
like "nmcli".
I don't think the user's configuration should be overwritten by
installing a meta-package like "ubuntu-desktop".
