Sure, but \dontrun's function is to prevent the R tools from running the enclosed code.
How it is rendered is a completely separate matter. The code in \dontrun is not required to be executable (or even valid R code), so surely there should be some sort of visual clue in the rendered page. I don't argue whether it should be the one shown now or should be left entirely to the package author, although the current one seems reasonable to me.
