It does. Let me rephraze my response - Donbas is not independently viable, hence it's people need access to other regions (of Ukraine) or countries (Russia) to get access to means of living a decent life. That access requires their documents being recognised by the authorities.
Hence Russia providing such access is a good thing for them, as Ukrainian activists have blocked their access to such means in other regions of Ukraine.
Ofcourse this undermines the intimidation policy conducted by Ukrainian political activists, but those policies, just like their blockade of Crimea shows, are counter productive.
