disable pk works differently in oracle 9 and oracle 10?

disable pk works differently in oracle 9 and oracle 10?

For me the Oracle 10 behaviour makes more sense, is more logical if
not to say intuitive. Why should I expect my (unique) index do
disappear just because I disable - not even drop - the primary key
constraint. I may still want it around to enforce uniqueness. Other
than that (I let) Oracle conveniently use the index to enforce the
constraint there is no connection between the PK constraint and the index.
