This is how decals are done in Unreal. They project onto any surface. Other than creating a decal system if our own (which is no easy or simple task, but we have discussed doing this), we cannot truly fix this issue. I could look into a few other ways to improve it, but generally the decals in Unreal engine 4 suck.
