2950 Management IP

I have a query regarding the management IP address on my 2950.I setup multiple vlans,create a vlan interface for each and assign an ip address to each vlan.This should be the management ip address for each vlan.
If for instance i have 3 vlan interfaces 2,3,4 all in the shutdown state, when i enable int vlan 2 all is good,when i enable int vlan 3, vlan 3 comes up and vlan 2 goes down.So with my switch i can only have 1 vlan interface in no shutdown at a time.This doesnt seem logically to me, so im wondering is this a feature limitation? A bug on my IOS? Can someone confirm if they see the same behaviour.
Thanks...

You can configure only one management IP (usually vlan1) on L2 Cisco switches.

Thanks, bad design from cisco.

VLAN1 can be configured with a management IP address, ip default-gateway and HTTP if you wish.
Just the one management IP per switch, not per VLAN
