This is the one of the greatest features of this car for people on the cold climate, when I get in my jeep in the morning I have to turn off the blower until the car warms up, otherwise I get that nasty 0 degree air blowing on my feet. by the time I get going and it warms I I'm mentally in drive state and usually forget to turn it on, until it clicks, I'm freezing my arz off.
This is the best way to go. that's functional design at it's best!!!

yes that is normal, heat should be directed to the feet, cold should be directed to the vents. and when you select another port you are overriding the automatic setting. you typically don't want heat blowing in your face, and cold air works best when it's blowing in your face
What you'll probably notice, is that when the temperature finally settles in the fan speed will drop, and not sure about the G, but some cars slightly open up the other vents so you have a little air coming from all area's to maintain the temperature.
On my jeep, it has a know with approx 8 settings, the only setting that puts on the vents are for AC on, for heat I have the option of feet only, or feet + windshield.
I don't have my G just yet, I would guess that if you choose to divert the heat to the windshield, it should NOT interrupt your auto setting, it should just open up the windshield vent in addition to the foot vent. Can you try this and confirm either way?

EDIT: Yesterday on the way home I had the climate control on auto and it turned on heat and defrost on its own

When the thermostat is set to auto and the temperature of the interior reaches the temp you set it at, shouldn't the system begin to regulate the temp by providing hot or cold air to keep the interior at the desired temp.
I find myselft getting hot or cold and I keep adjusting the temp. When I took it to the dealer they said that you shouldn't keep it on auto and lower the fan.
