Can't renew a membership for multiple terms with credit card from back end

When renewing a membership from the CiviCRM admin interface, if you select "Renew", there is text that says, "Renewal extends membership end date by one membership period" with a "change" link that lets you renew for multiple terms.

If you select "Renew-Credit Card", no such option is available.

This seems like an easy fix - and my client is willing to pay me to develop the easy fix. I'm submitting this bug report first for feedback in case this is by design.
