Invisible blocks remain, when mining very fast

When mining very fast, e.g. Ice or Dirt with an Efficient V enchanted Pick or Shovel, sometimes an invisible block remains. You can't see the block, or interact with it, but it is there (eg. I can see a hole in the water surface of my ice farm, where the invisible ice block is; and I once even almost suffocated, when I tried to pass an invisible dirt block, hanging in midair, after I terraformed a hill away).
After stopping and reloading the game, the invisible block becomes visible again, and can be removed normally.
I think this bug is similiar to the "ghostblock"'s reported in the context of flying machines (but much more serious, because I want to use my mega-fast Efficient V tools).
In the bug report above, you answered, this is a client bug, not a server bug, because the block becomes visible after reloading the game. But who is responsible for developing the client, where should I send my bug report to then ?

Thank you, I didn't see MC-5694. As far, as I understood, the fix, as proposed by Gnembon, is to add the line:
this.theWorld.notifyBlockUpdate(pos, iblockstate, iblockstate, 0)
in line 215 in PlayerInteractionManager.java. But how am I supposed to apply this patch, is the source code somewhere available, or is the current practice, to decompile, edit, and then recompile the code (omg!) ?

Sorry, to bother you again (Minecraft newbie). I just read about Minecraft versions in Wiki, and found out, that version 17w50a is the newest development version, and that I can use it via a launcher profile.
Does "Fixed version(s): 17w50a" mean, that this bug is fixed in 17w50a ?
And, is 17w50a just a bugfix version of the released 1.12.2, so that it could be used without much risk (I would still backup my saved game of course), or is it the new development branch of the next full version (1.13 I guess), with lots of new bugs ? 🙂

Yes, 17w50a is the current 1.13 snapshot, and it is still somewhat unstable and buggy.

It looks like there many only be a couple more snapshots for 1.13 before it gets a stable release, so you can just hang tight until then if you want to be safe! 🙂
