What I expected:
Villagers to farm like normal.
What happened:
Villagers stopped farming and instead just got locked into staring at cocoa beans.
Steps to reproduce:
Unconfirmed if this has to be an existing village, but it is the easiest way:
Find a village.
Replace the bordering Oak Logs from one or more of the preexisting farms with Jungle Wood.
Plant Cocoa Beans on side of Jungle Wood.
Brown-coated Villagers will eventually, when they cross paths with the matured beans, with a matured farmland (Wheat/Potatoes/etc) will stop at the beans and simply stare at it, but not farm anything. After staring, they refuse to move until the Cocoa Beans are removed.

Invalid, modded client.

I'm uploading pics of it happening in an unmodded environment.
As a precaution - I uninstalled Optifine, uninstalled Minecraft, removed any related files, including saved worlds, reinstalled Minecraft.
Started a new world. Found something new - The Cocoa Beans only affect the adults, not the children. And it doesn't have to be in a preexisting village.
I'm hoping that makes this valid.

i think you will have to post it again since it's still unvalid

I'll wait a bit and see. RedstoneHelper should still be watching it, so he will get updates when changes are made I think.

All 4 adults are now stuck, I took away the children. The adults can't get up. Some other villagers have gathered near to chat.

I think its normal, because same happens when you have water and water lilies surrounding them too. some blocks mobs just won't cross. i don't think its a bug, villagers won't walk on hoppers either, there are many blocks villagers won't walk on

If it were normal, you'd expect it to affect all mobs. But this doesn't affect the baby Villagers at all.

not all mobs are effected the same way by many things, eg: baby mobs are immune to weather effects , and they are quicker and can go places adults can't
I use this FEATURE of adult farmers / or other mobs inability to cross certain blocks to my advantage, not disadvantage, eg: trapping adult farmers on farms rather than off them.

Is this still an issue in the latest snapshot 16w44a? If so please update the affected versions.
