When you walk through the structure shown in the attachment, flying is automatically enabled. (Creative Only)
edit:
The specific structure illustrated isn't necessary. Moving from walking on any slab to floating in water (where the water height is less than 1 block above the slab height and where autojump is enabled) will enable flying when in creative mode.
Only happens when walking facing towards the structure. I.e. I could not enable flying if I was walking sideways or backwards at the slab/water interface.
Expectation:
To just simply walk through it with no problems.
What happened:
Once I touched the water of the structure, I started flying.
Steps:
1. Build the simple structure shown in the attachment.
2. Walk through it.
3. Flying mode will be enabled automatically.

Confirmed in v0.10.5 on Android 4.4.2; however, structure is unnecessarily complex.
Flying will be enabled whenever the player leaves a slab of any substance to stand in water. This works if the water is stationary or flowing. Flying is not enabled when a player leaves a slab to enter lava.
Could not be reproduced in Survival. Too bad.
Duplication of https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-4642 which is a specific case (cake is a slab) of this general problem.
Confirmed, this affects 0.16.0 on Windows 10 PC also. (After testing the setup above, you can tell you are flying by holding space)
Built it, and flying was enabled.
Not when I was walking really slowly though.
