Yes. This is by design. My gui does not have the choise comp-lzo no in order
not to confuse users. comp-lzo no and no comp-lzo are different things.
comp-lzo no allows the server to "push comp-lzo [yes]" to enable lzo. If a
config has a comp-lzo I import it always as comp-lzo adaptive. The server can
always override the comp-lzo settings

That's the way it was with older OpenVPN version. Unfortunately this is no
longer the case.

I have just tested it. Importing a comp-lzo no config worked. Can you point to
any document which has that this behaviour has changed?

Importing doesn't throw any erros, but the line is lost, right?
I haven't found any documentation on it, but had to figure this out by trial
and error. However I've pointed out the same issue to authors of OpenVPN
clients for Windows and Mac whom confirmed the findings and adjusted their
clients accordingly.

The line is not lost but converted to comp-lzo yes. If you have no comp-lzo
line then no comp-lzo is added to the config.
I will try to find a testcase where current import logic does not work. (Aside
from the cornercase of a server configured with comp-lzo no and compiled with
stub-lzo)

I have tried various comp-lzo yes/no/adaptive combinations on client and server
and all worked fine. I can't reproduce the problem, sorry :/

Talking with the developers of OpenVPN confirmed my opinion of how comp-lzo
works.
For reference if you really need comp-lzo no you can still deselect lzo
compression and add comp-lzo no as an advanced option
