The bug
Although chat text no longer renders in front of title text, it renders in front of player names in the player list that can be shown by holding Tab
. This is not the case in previous versions.
How to reproduce
Create a scoreboard objective to be shown in the player list:
/scoreboard objectives add list dummy /scoreboard objectives setdisplay list list
Hold
Tab
to automatically set a score for the player and show the player listResize the game window to 256 by 128 pixels for easier reproduction
Hold
Tab
again to show the player list after repeating a long message such as the one below a few times to cover the screen:asdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdf
→ ❌ The chat text renders in front of player names in the player list

This "bug" wasn't a bug. However now it is gone in 1.20, instead being replaced with MC-263256.
There is a bug here: chat text rendered behind the player list background, but in front of the player list text. It should be both in front or both behind.
The bug relates to MC-173672 and MC-187267 and should be assigned to both Rendering and UI categories.
