What I expected to happen was...:
When gravel and sand was falling onto cobweb, I expected it to drop right away, like it does when it is falling on a torch.
What actually happened was...:
The sand or gravel was falling very slowly through the cobweb, and then dropping when all the way through. Plus if there is more sand or gravel block on top of each other they will merge into each other while falling through the cobweb, in a way that looks very glitchy.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Place a cobweb.
2. Place several gravel or sand blocks on top of the cobweb.
3. Destroy the bottom sand or gravel, so the rest will fall on the cobweb.
4. Observe.

This probably works as intended, I think it shouldn't drop at all though. Just like torches, if you have a wall of torches it falls until there's also a torch on the floor. Then it drops.

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version 1.6.4 / Launcher version 1.2.5 ? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.
This has been around for a while. I feel the ideal fix would be to have falling gravel and sand destroy cobwebs (with no drop) although the fact that they are entities may make this solution difficult. All other entities are supposed to fall through cobweb slow.
