Yes, everything is working as it is supposed to.

>From the output you posted one can conclude that macros known to
font-latex, like \input, are fontified with `font-lock-keyword-face'
and `font-latex-sedate-face'.  The former is the more visible one and
wins because it is first in the list.  Then there are macros not
specifically known to font-latex, like \startformula, and those are
fontified with `font-latex-sedate-face' only.  This is exactly like in
LaTeX mode, only that in LaTeX mode more macros are known to
font-latex.  You can check this by writing something like \foo in a
LaTeX mode buffer.

If you want to make the unknown macros more visible, customize
`font-latex-sedate-face' with `M-x customize-face RET
font-latex-sedate-face RET'.
