It's deliberate.  sshd disables some functionality when it detects an
expired password (eg port forwarding) and it's difficult to reliably
detect whether or not a password was successfully changed (there is no
standardization around exit values of passwd, for example).  Requiring
the user to log in again is the simplest way to sure all of the checks
are run again.

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
