[1.11] Yay! Nestable shulker boxes -- a feature or bug?

[The_Wabbit]

Hello all--

While investigating another issue, I discovered that by putting a shulker box on a hopper pointing into another shulkerbox and breaking it -- the hopper happily puts the first shulkerbox into the second. From what I can see everything is just fine (I can pull out the now nested box and all of its contents are preserved.) I did not try nesting into nesting as the first level is already not possible in vanilla (the shulkerbox is trapped by the hopper and NOT put into the other one). Pictures attached: I broke the pink box and it was put into the white one with its contents preserved fine as you can see.

 

So my question: is this supposed to occur as a feature of Forge-modded-ness and capabilities? Or is it unintended and should not be relied on?

It's probably a bug

Interesting... I will experiment with that...

Forge usually doesn't want to alter vanilla behavior, so it's probably a bug.
