I think it's a bug, but i'm not really sure.

Every time I create a new form/unit the file will be placed in the
uses section of the project file (lpr). But when I load a extended
file to a project with project inspector, the direcory will be put in
searchpath, but the file itself is not placed in the uses section of
lpr. That's strange, because all files has to be put there. The loaded
file will not compiled to the project.

Maybe, you've forgotten to "add" it to the project?
You can load as many files as you wish to the editor window but they
aren't automatically added to the project. I.e. you e.g. use Project >
Project Inspector > Add...

If you need automatically adding the unit to uses section, you might
want to make sure if in Project Options "Main unit has Uses section
containing all units of project" is checked.

P.S. I don't like this feature, therefore I disabled it  So I'm not
sure how it works with newly added (but not created) units.

No, I'm not forgotten it. The "Main unit has Uses section containing
all units of project" is checked.
That's why it's strange.
