Just curious, why was this resolved as "Invalid"? Wouldn't "Awaiting Response" make more sense? Also, I can confirm that is still an issue for 1.8.3, but only for hoppers and cauldrons (because sand behavior was changed to break normally on the other blocks).
Actually it may have been, I just didn't feel like responding to this old issue so it got auto-closed after no response... It mostly affected my dealing with falling sand spawners, but those aren't too used anymore so I didn't care much about it. But ya this is still probably an issue.
Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.
Note: this is a automatic message, so apologies if I miss something.
