The Bug
Above the composter block, whilst mipmap levels are on at least 2, a white glowing outline is rendered when viewed from afar.
EDIT: Could possibly relate to MC-1794
How to reproduce
Enable mipmap levels on to minimum 2
Place a composter block then view from afar

There's a updated intel graphics driver available on their drivers section. Please try it with that and see if the issue persists. The driver you're currently using is 3 years old and might have issues.
Pretty sure this has nothing to do with my current intel driver, as I am aware of it being outdated.
This was done by me intentionally due to weird screen flickering I had been encountering with the latest version (dated from last year), and downgraded the driver manually upon the Device Manager.
Besides, this bug report was reported before I downgraded the driver version (on the 30th of October); so the screenshots are providing the issue I had with the updated driver.
There is a similar issue: MC-1794 that could relate, and seems to be confirmed fixed when mipmap levels are set to 0 (this issue also is fixed with Optifineinstalled).
Latest snapshot, although there were minor rendering changes this time, doesn't seem to have fixed this graphical issue. Is it because the Graphics card support is higher than before?
EDIT: They tweaked the rendering again, so this won't have improved much (proving most likely in this case) and this, being itself a graphical issue, is an issue related to how this Intel Graphics model deals with optimised rendering.
I suppose this is a pretty minor rendering issue anyway.
White oulines over block entities could be useful to locate them depending on how low the mipmap level settings are..?
