Is it expected that redirecting ppp interface, that supposed to be clean IP

No. Imagine if there were other types of packets non-ip for example,
what do you do then? 
this feature is as close as you can get when you do switch level
mirroring or redirection. If you want to edit header before redirect
etc, use pedit (refer to recent discussion with someone who wanted to
replicate packets for redundant routing purposes);
