Using 1-9 keys, hoppers or droppers, and shift-clicking, stack height restrictions can be circumvented. This affects several slots:
Slot | Items | 1-9 keys | Hoppers/Droppers | Shift-clicking |
---|---|---|---|---|
Beacon | Diamonds, Emeralds, Iron Ingots, Gold Ingots | Fixed in 15w44b | No | No |
Furnace fuel slot | Buckets | Fixed in 15w44b | Fixed in 15w44b | No |
Enchanting table | Any stackable item | Fixed in 15w44b | No | No |
Armor head slot | Pumpkins, Skulls of any type | Fixed in 15w44b | No | Fixed |
Brewing Stand | Glass bottles | Fixed in 15w44b | Not fixed | Not fixed |
Each of these should only allow a single item.

Good idea, never thought of it like that.
Letting them stack in the beacon would be a better fix than letting only one item fall in.
When a stack of items that are not diamond, emerald, iron ingot, or gold ingot are fed in to a beacon from a dropper or hopper then the item stack will diaper leaving only 1 item out of the full stack in its place.
You can also 1-9 click a stack into the beacon, so yeah letting the player normally stack the items in the beacon would be the best solution IMO.

Confirmed for 16w35a.

Fixed in 1.11.

Not fixed for brewing stands. Please reopen.
Reopened for 1.11
Glass bottles (empty) still stack using both hopper and shift-click
Glass bottles still stack in brewing stands as of 22w16a.
Can confirm, though even if pressing done only 1 item is consumed, so maybe it should rather be allowed to stack manually.
