[MC-132] String/Tripwires can be stacked vertically?

"EDIT 11/8/12: Issue Resolved, Intentional"

The new addition of the tripwires in 1.3 was great, but ever since, an annoying bug has remained with them. Basically, placing down a piece of string on the ground creates an un-bugged tripwire. However, if you right click while holding another piece of string on top of the one you just placed, another tripwire is placed, strangely floating in mid-air.

The string should not function like this, and should act like redstone when right clicked on top of with another piece; nothing.

The string floated and could not be connected with any higher wall tripwire hooks.

1. Place a tripwire sting down, as long as there is 1 block (or more) above it.
2. Right click with another string on the top part of it's hitbox. This will result in the easy-to-find bug.

Intentional, you can make them in the air if you want to.

Awfully sorry to waste your time; I didn't know. Thanks for letting me know!

No, no need to delete. It's helpful to have an official statement that the current string behaviour is intended. In fact, if you could change the report title back to String/Tripwires can be stacked vertically, that would be great.
