If a villager is linked to a bed (can sleep in it), it will not unlink from that bed if it goes to another dimension, such as the nether or end. Or to the overworld from the nether.
This basically makes it so that bed cannot be claimed by another villager, preventing villagers from breeding.
This is also unlike previous mechanics using doors, where a villager would take up part of the cap, and then be take out of the cap when they go to another dimension.
How to reproduce:
1. Summon a villager, and have them pair with a bed.
2. Send that villager to the nether
3. Spawn another villager and you will see they cannot link to the original bed. You need to place another bed, or destroy and replace the original.
Expected results:
Villager would un-link from bed once they have gone to another dimension, allowing a new villager to claim their bed.
This bug has fairly serious implications for villager breeders, and village tech in general.

I spawned a villager and then made it night so that the villager would sleep in that bed and then turned it back to day and when the villager came out of the bed it went to the nether through the portal i made , then i spawned another villager at night and he slept in the bed and i even went to check if the 1st villager was in the nether and he was there .
I don't believe this is resolved. I use a village breeder that stops working consistently until I break and replace all of the beds. Also having several issues with regards to beds in potential iron farm designs with villagers who have passed through the nether from the breeder until I break and replace all of the beds. I am on the latest beta 1.16.0.63 on Xbox One X.

I've tested and this bug appears to be fixed, so I removed 1.16.1 from the affected versions. Villagers now immediately link to beds that were owned by other villagers as soon as the original owners go into a nether portal. Or, if you send a bed owner to the nether then spawn a new villager, the new villager immediately links to the bed. (Tested while keeping an extra villager linked to a bed to make sure the village was not being destroyed and recreated.)
I also have the same problem with the villagers not unlikeing from there beds when they are in the nether
