WitherSkull / Fireball disapears at y >~ 256

When a WitherSkull gets teleported above ~256 it disapears

How to reproduce:

  1. Summon a WitherSkull

    /summon WitherSkull ~ ~ ~ {direction:[0.0,0.0,0.0]}
  2. Testfor the WitherSkull to make sure it is still there (This should output something like "Found ...")

    /testfor @e[type=WitherSkull]
  3. Teleport it 270 blocks up

    /tp @e[type=WitherSkull] ~ ~270 ~
  4. Test again for the WitherSkull

Now you shouldn't be able to find it

Fireballs could also be affected. This may be intended because Minecraft wants to redruce lag and infinitely flying WitherSkulls will probably create lag

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version 14w18a / Launcher version 1.3.11 or later? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

Confirmed for 15w43c.

The command in the first step doesn't work if it isn't changed to:

/summon WitherSkull ~ ~ ~ {direction:[0.0,0.0,0.0]}
