Recently seems to have happened on a server where some youtuber that more on the casual side of the community. The admins didn't understood that the dragon was between the outer islands and inner island in an unloaded state, so their tried to respawn it to fix the situation, but was done wrongly and spawned in the overworld instead, causing some (minor) destruction. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHNmpwZAaL0
That bug is easy to work around for players that know what is happening, as you only have to follow the dragon from the outer islands back to the center , but on servers where people aren't as knowledgeable of the technical side of minecraft, this situation can cause a lot of problems when they try to fix their end dimension.
I've tried it in single player 1.16.4 because I was thinking it was caused by spigot or one of the plugin used on their server, but it did teleport the ender dragon like described in the bug report. Potential fix: -block the dragon from being teleported -change the destination so the dragon is put on the fountain when it hit a gateway -chuckload the dragon when there is a player in the same dimension, so it can fly back to the island no matter what
