place a shulker on the top block
remove all blocks from the pillar except the top block

isn't it WAI? As shulker is "block mob", and blocks can float...

[Mod]Les3awe 2015-10-22T12:22:16Z

Wait for Mojang to confirm...

"Works as intended" may be an exaggeration, but they're not supposed to be able to teleport great distances, and if they can't find a spot they simply give up and stay where they are.
