Most definitely a feature.  The 'Turn done' button will change colour
on the last player who is still moving.  (This could be extended to
indicate the number of players still moving.)  I often need time to
do non-urgent housekeeping or check documentation, and I'll take that
time at the end of my turns; usually I click Turn Done to indicate that
whatever I'm doing isn't urgent enough to make others wait for it.
It's a simple act of courtesy that often pays because the game will keep
going at a higher pace in general.

It's also useful when you need to rescue a unit at the start
of the next turn.
