#1 is a bug, i guess
#2 is nice, though why would you need a specific number? the more the merrier isnt it?

I wouldn't call #1 a bug. If you try to use it without a spaceyard, you will get an error when it gets to the top of the queue.

#1 is a bug because you are not ever supposed to have a ship in the build queue of a planet without a SY.

Why not, as long as it won't actually build without the spaceyard?

I expect you could do the same thing by ordering a ship at a planet with a spaceyard, and then scrapping the spaceyard (though there would be no reason to), no?

Seems like a fairly clever work-around to an interface limitation, to me.
