As far as I can tell, this is how it works in 2.79. Can you show more clearly what the problem is?

This doesn't appear to be a bug, but a suggestion for a feature inside the Inset tool.

The depth feature just offsets the result along the normals. What you are suggesting is a bit more advanced. Sounds like a nice idea.

It may be a good suggestion, but I'm almost certain it's not a bug.

How can I add a suggestion?

This is a good place to start. Feature ideas should be as fully fleshed out as possible.
Describe the feature, why it would be useful, where it would be in the UI, Ect.
