Potion of leaping splash is sideways

When throwing a potion of leaping downwards it is the side of the potion unlike other splash potions where you throw it and you can see the front (The part you see when looking at it your inventory). Same as holding it, you hold it sideways.

To recreate open minecraft 14w27b. Get a splash potion of leaping out of your inventory, throw it. Also look in f5 to see you holding it sideways.
