Player Falls After Returning from Settings/Marketplace in Pause Menu (Regarding the pause feature in Minecraft preview)

Description:

When the game is paused, the pause menu displays options like "Resume Game," "Settings," and "Marketplace." A bug occurs if the player jumps and pauses mid-air. If the player navigates to "Settings" or "Marketplace" from the pause menu and then returns to the pause menu, the player moves slightly downward, as if falling.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Jump from a high place in the game.

2. Pause the game mid-air.

3. From the pause menu, select "Settings" or "Marketplace."

4. Return to the pause menu.

5. Repeat Step 3-4 several times.

Expected Behavior:
The player should remain stationary and not fall while the game is paused.

Actual Behavior:
The player falls slightly each time they navigate to "Settings" or "Marketplace" and return to the pause menu. Repeating this process causes the player to fall continuously, which can result in death if done from a significant height.

• Occurs in both Survival and Creative modes.

• The attached video demonstrates this behavior.

Update:
In addition to falling, other in-game actions and interactions also occur. For instance, while testing this issue, I attempted to fall onto a zombie. The zombie was able to damage me during the process, indicating that gameplay mechanics such as mob interactions continue even while navigating between the "Settings" or "Marketplace" tabs and the pause menu.
