Description

The server allows a player to place a block so that it intersects with the player, which causes the player to be moved up or along to clear the block, or, if the block is placed at head height, causes them to crawl.

The notchian server will not allow blocks to be placed in these circumstances.

Research direction

Start by locating the block_in_hitbox configuration handling and the server's block-placement collision checks. Compare placement behavior with the issue's described notchian-server behavior, including intersections at body and head height; done means invalid placements no longer move or make the player crawl.
