caustics on hidden objects when using shadow-channel

hi community,

this is a simple test-scene with objects (sss,lambert,mirror,glas) on a plane (lambert).
if the plane is hidden to camera and shadow-channel is checked, caustics are visible on the (hidden) plane in the render!
if the shadow-channel is not checked, it will render as expected without caustics on the hidden plane.
Also the output of the shadow-channel seems not quite correct (AA on the edge of the plane vs background / caustics will show up in the scene lit by the sun).

is this a bug? please confirm!
