The bug:
Just a small bug concerning the chunks;
I happened to be mining deep and randomly underneath the surface of a default world, until I noticed that when looking around for ores to mine in F5 mode (default key to 3rd person view); the long corridor of mined blocks behind me had become transparent, and were considered as air blocks as if I was in Spectator mode... but wasn't. Pretty useful for locating caves I guess...
However, once I returned to first person view everything went back to normal (as if nothing happened). This can be done in Survival, as well as in Creative mode.
How to reproduce:
Create a new world (I created a Superflat world)
Start mining a 1x1 hole at a random location as far from the surface as possible
Then start mining in F5 mode... (follow the screenshots)
At some point, you may notice that everything behind you becomes transparent..
Please let me know if this is a bug and thanks for your time!
Here are some screenshots of what I think is a bug:

Oh ok. I didn't notice that it had already been confirmed in earlier releases like 1.12.2... It had only occured to me in this version for some reason...
It would be good if fixed, as this is also a good way to see what lies beneath you when digging straight down. 😃
Why has the bug MC-63070 destined to be fixed so late though (since 1.8)?
Thank you for your report!
However, this issue is a Duplicate of MC-63070.
If you have additional information, please add it to that report.
Please search before reporting, as it's likely that one exists already.
