I think this is actually intended by the devs.

I think it's a new feature. When you are on water you can swim up and swim down without looking up to swim up or looking down to swim down. But the problem before is you can't go up when you reach surface but now it's fixed.
Still an issue in 1.6.0.1 - the flight controls appear and are functional some of the time underwater. The player no longer gets stuck in the sneak position underwater though.
