[MC-264023] Using F3+F4 to switch to creative or spectator and dying at the same time results in death in creative or spectator

If you die and switch to creative mode using the F3+F4 shortcut to switch to creative or spectator mode at the same time, you will die as usual. However, your inventory will show creative or spectator mode. (This requires extremely precise timing so it is very hard to replicate)

The switching of gamemode comes after your death, so it makes sense. You aren't dying in creative, but rather switching to it after dying.

Like what errant says, you switch to creative as soon as you die which means you are in creative after you have died. Also this isn't anything major as it doesn't effect gameplay.
