CRM 2016 Online Web Api odata annotations not being honored on properties specified in expand clause

I have the "odata.include-annotations=OData.Community.Display.V1.FormattedValue" header specified for my web api calls, which works fine on properties(attributes) returned that belong to the main entity being queried.

However I don't get the annotated properties that belong to the single value navigation property specified in the $expand query clause. I'm getting back a large list and it would would be prohibitive performance wise to have to make a secondary call for item in the list to get the annotation property values.

This seems like a bug to me, any suggestions?

Yes, I have the no odata formatted values in the fetchXml version either. Also the fetchxml json results output seems stranger with a bunch of properties having a string such as x200e (could be wrong, from my memory) in the property name.
