The FMS-stored route for XXXDAL01 includes the GLEN ROSE Arrival; including coming over the top of DFW; and the last two fixes are HURBS and [Runway] 13R. However; this is problematic for several reasons. First; the GLEN ROSE Arrival doesn't allow a turn direct to [Runway] 13R after HURBS Intersection. Second; this stored flight plan does not include ISABL at 11;000; it must be entered by the Pilot. But if; after being entered; the pilots change runways to [Runway] 13L; the ISABL 11;000 restriction will drop out. So; even after having verified the crossing points; it is possible for this restriction to drop out if the runway is changed; causing a violation; and possible separation. (Note: this did not occur on this flight. Everything went normal because of my awareness of the situation. I am just reporting this for safety awareness because I believe it is a problem; since I have encountered it in the past; and have filed an ASAP in the past on the issue.
