I can confirm that this is still cause for confusion. I recently noticed it and asked the local sysops if they could fix it, they said no and led me here.
As for solution, I second the #1 suggestion from @Rchard2scout to remove the "Content pages" link - if there's no reliable way to enumerate the content pages in WP's current state, there's no point in trying.
