Don't know if it still be this was if i texture it, but anyway..

The blue faces means the normals (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_normal) are flipped. This will affect texturing, as the back of the faces don't render the same as the front, unless you set a double sided material. To flip the normals, select all the faces that turn up blue, and go "edit>Flip Normals" or press "shift + n"

..and in my opinion it is not a bug. Sometimes a desicion needs to be made by a human, otherwise you can program till death and not to achieve the goal ;)
