Player Lighting Calculated From Feet Position

Resolved
Works As Intended
1

Especially when in water, the hand and held items appear too dark. The fog and vignette will also darken. This is because the light level for your HUD is calculated from the light of the block at your feet, not your head. The debug menu also seems to display the light level of your feet.

We want it too show us the level of light at our feet in the debug, don't we? We need to know if it's dark enough for hostile mobs to spawn!

Confirmed for 1.8.3. This is annoying, because if you're standing on soul sand for example, the sky appears completely dark!
