I would say its the expected behaviour - when the mini-buffer is still
active, the command wasn't sent yet, and when you finally send it,
Org-mode acts on the property drawer where point is at that moment.

You might want to read about using the mark, i.e. how to set the mark
before searching the task-id, and then go back to that point before
sending the command from the mini-buffer:
