Banners only take up one block despite appearing to be two blocks high

Put the summary of the bug you're having here

When I placed the new banner block off the hitbox of another banner
I expected the banner to be placed like the other had been, with its bottom section on the ground.

But the banner was placed within the ground
The stop half stuck out of the ground, whilst the bottom half was in the ground

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Place a banner, I found it to be any color banner
2. Then place another banner off of the hitbox of the first
3. There you have it, the ground banner.

You can also just place the banner on a wall, and then place any block in the bottom of the banner. Ground wall banner.

Confirmed for 14w30b. Here's another screenshot.

Any time you place a wall banner (i.e. on a side hitbox rather than a top hitbox) it doesn't check for collisions before placing the banner.

Confirmed in 30c as well

I kindof hope this is WAI. Ive seen some pretty cool designs using half-banners

The reason for beds and doors working properly is because their hitboxes take up two blocks, where as banner hitboxes only fill one block of space.
Hitboxes are what determine if a block can be placed in an indicated spot, with the exception of placing blocks on tall grass.

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases. If this has been done, we can reopen the issue.

Keep in mind that the "Resolved"-Status on this ticket just means "Answered", and that we are waiting for further information on whether this issue still exists or not. We will reopen it as soon as the requested information has been delivered.

Confirmed for 1.8.1 and 1.8.2-pre1.

How is this even working as intended!? A banner sinking in the ground is NOT working as intended unless stated by a Mojang employee, which is not the case here.
Please reopen this issue, as it was resolved incorrectly.

Reopened for Mojang to look at.
