Arrows bounce off endermen when they have nowhere to teleport

Noticed this at an Enderman farm in survival. I'm not sure if it is an intended feature, but if an Enderman is unable to teleport away from an incoming arrow, then the arrow reverses direction.

Confirmed in 1.8.4.

Confirmed for 1.8.9 and 15w51b.

Hmm... The enderman seems to disappear* when I shoot it. The arrow goes "through" the enderman. May require more testing.

Environment: 16w02a. Generated a superflat world with ground at y=~64; enderman was spawned on a lone block at y=250, and was shot.

*disappear = does not appear in "/say @e"

@James (inactive),I think it is simply because it teleported into an unloaded chunk.

Given the recent fix to MC-183446 and other changes in snapshot 9, are there any plans to revisit the status of this ticket as intentional or not?
