Doing /give @p minecraft:sand 1 2 gives a crash. This is an invalid damage value, but this doesn't happen for other blocks, such as stone.

This doesn't crash the game when using non-utilized damage values with other blocks, such as stone, dirt, wool, emeralds, etc, but the game crashes if you do so with sand, making it unique and thus a glitch.
The inventory must be cleared of the item using outside sources before the single player game can be reloaded. <- this sucks if you did a typo of bumping "2" instead of 1.
Confirmed in 14w21b.
MC-30484 is still open and confirmed for 14w21b.
There is no sand:2
