None of my vehicles lights dim at idle, nor do any of my vehicles exhibit a rough idle. I would disagree that it's normal.
On the other hand, it's not uncommon. Many vehicles do this when under a heavy electrical load. Easiest way to see it is at night- headlights on, blower on high and rear defrost on, all at idle. Then rev the engine gently- you see the lights brighten and the pitch of the blower change. Also, sometimes the load on the alternator will make some smaller engines struggle some, causing a slightly rough idle. The vast majority of the motoring public will never notice this.
