Ghasts firing at random

From the descriptions of the Ghast on the wiki, they only fire their fire charges when a player is within 16 blocks of them. I was in the nether, oped and in gamemode 1 and ghasts would spawn at random, as they should, but would start firing in random directions. One structure in the nether was built of glass and happened to be the target of one particular ghast. Is this normal behavior, should they be firing when there isn't a player, they can target, nearby? It's causing quite a bit of damage to the surrounding terrain, as well. IT makes about as much sense as a skeleton firing arrows at random with no target.

Cannot confirm, instead I'm getting MC-49640.

Is this still an issue in the current Minecraft Snapshot 15w46a or later? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

Ticket resolved as incomplete, because no answer in a reasonable amount of time (1+ year), if it still happens, please update the ticket.
