This is a thing that happened in a stream I was watching today. Intended gameplay or bug?

In case it's not entirely clear, the cell had an entire pod of enemies locked in it along with the prisoners.

Clown Car Cell full of Aliens

I've had this happen once as well. I believe there was a drone outside the cell and two troopers inside it.

This can't be the trap mission. That guy outside the cell was inside, at the door. I moved the VIP out, he was surrounded by the pod.

Your right it doesn't have anything to do with it being the Snare mission, those are always hack missions and require 7+ regional strength. This is just an artifact of the pod spawner seeing those tiles as valid tiles to spawn on. Normally it wouldn't be an issue because the pod would just open the door, but since they can't open a door that is locked they get stuck until you hack it open.
From what I've read, the code that spawns pods uses some very general logic that places pods within some deviation from the line between you and the objective. Sometimes that will lead to them being right on top of the objective, and in case of Jailbreaks being locked in the cell with the objective.

Happened to me tonight. Saw a flash of them in the cell on the mission start, then upon hacking the cell, discovered they were still in there.
I've also seen mobs from pods path through the cells before they were hacked as well.
Okay, this has me wondering if Dwarf Fortress could be modded into an XCOM game. 'Cause there's no game like Dwarf Fortress for causing "fun" when you let the Clowns out of the Circus.
