[MC-8239] Game glitches out when Creeper kills you

Hello,
Ive noticed since the first snapshots this year, that when creepers explode, you get blown into the air, and then when you think you're going to fall to the ground, you glitch out in mid-air!
---------
How to recreate: 1. Stand next to a creeper in survival.
2. Be blown up by the Creeper

If it wouldn't stop midair, you could fall endlessly into the void.

And that would be bad because...?

I'm missing something.

You'd eventually crash the game by having a giant negative y-coord.

I had originally meant that if there is a solid block beneath the player, they would fall onto that. And if there is no valid block, then they would glitch out, like I had described.

PS: I know it's a little picky, but it does annoy me.
