I contend this is not a duplicate of MC3073. 3073 is for the graphics of plants and is indeed intentional. I understand that.
This regards _hit-boxes_, which are off and should be listed as a bug. Unless you seriously want to say the hit boxes were moved off the plants intentionally.
Can reproduce in 1.8 in survival. Docked boat in line of soul sand as gently as I could but docked pretty far into boat and jumped to land. After 36 seconds of bobbing in water and stuck in sand, boat broke into sticks/planks. Three more tests with similar results. Tried again with soul sand barely touching boat and boat survived at least 2 minutes (still there as I type this).
My guess is boats docked too far are bumping into the land and breaking after bouncing a while.
I also had zombie villagers despawn, but have a good idea of why and it might be related here.
Had 4 cured zombie villagers in 1x1x2 (2 high) areas pending my deciding what to do with them. They had two high blocks in each direction (but not diagonal) and a top, for bare minimum room for each of them. Two disappeared, and later so did the other two.
Could not recreate issue in a creative world. Spawning in more zombies caused the villager death because the zombies could attack through the block corners (which the character cannot do). Redid the test covering the corners and the villager lived nicely..
