This has been standard behavior on mine since iTunes started  
supporting podcasts.  iTunes behaves for me the way you describe,  
without some smart playlist entanglements, but the iPod just plays  
one after the other.

I have the 5GB iPod with the last firmware they released for it - I  
don't know if that matters.

In general, you're seeing misbehavior, not misdesign, I believe.  The  
old reset/reload might need to be done.

Dr. Dobb's published code a while back on how to access the database  
with Java if you want to actually try troubleshooting.
