Why object field initialization does not work with proc or func result ?

Description

Certainly not a bug but coming from other programming languages it feels buggy that this snippet

type Foo = object
  port* : Natural = 6789

let f = Foo()
echo "f.port:", f.port

proc someStuff() : Foo =
  echo "result.port:" , result.port
  result = Foo()
  echo "result after build.port:" , result.port

let sf = someStuff()
echo "sf.port:", sf.port

outputs
f.port:6789
result.port:0
result after build.port:6789
sf.port:6789

IMO it is both error proning and not consistent...
what is the rationale, is there any magic compilation flag to have field initialization done 'ever ever' ?

Thanks.
