The bug
When a sulfur cube is captured in a bucket, it preserves all information, including its motion, and restores it when the bucket is placed.
How to reproduce
Spawn a sulfur cube
Feed it a block
Hit it with a diamond sword, and quickly put it into a bucket while it’s still moving
Use the bucket elsewhere
Expected behavior
The sulfur cube should spawn still.
The only information preserved after bucketing should be health, block, custom name, age, and golden dandelion status. Other information, such as motion and potion effects, should be lost.
Observed behavior
It spawns with the same motion it had when it was originally picked up.
