PO Status when submiting for approval

Let's say I'm a buyer and Oracle is set so the creator of a PO can approve his own document - within prescribed limits. Let's assume my limits for a particular account is $50.

I create a PO with a value of $75 (beyond my limit), so I submit to a person who's position approval assignment has a limit of $100.

I create another PO for only $35 (within my limit) but elect to submit it anyway.

In the 1st scenario shouldn't the PO status be "InProcess" and for the 2nd situation "PreApproved"?

That's the way it was in 11.5.9 but in 11.5.10 a PO beyond the buyer's ability is submitted as "PreApproved".
