The bug
When aiming at vines on a wall, placing a sign on them will delete the vines and place the sign on the wall in their place. One would expect this behaviour to extend to item frames and painting (possibly without deleting the vines), however this is not the case.
How to reproduce
Place a couple of blocks on top of each other
Attach vines to one side of the pillar
Try to right-click with an item frame on the vines
→❌ Nothing happensTry to right-click with a painting on the vines
→❌ Nothing happensTry to right-click with a sign on the vines
→✔ The sign replaces the vines

I think what he means is that you can place the sign...the vines just go away, and the sign gets placed.
Going by the screenshots, when he tried to place either an item frame or a painting in the same manner, the vines did NOT go away. In other words, you'd have to manually remove the vines, in order to place either of those two items.
I have no idea if that's behavior that needs to be corrected or not, but at least I believe that's what he's saying.
this is because signs are treated as a block, but paintings and item frames and paintings are actually treated as entities.
So you're trying to say you can't place item frames or paintings on vines? I don't understand.
