[MC-1794] White stitching on polygon edges / White lines or black dots between blocks
[MC-4577] Unable to combine enchanted books for a higher level enchant.
[MC-8193] Hopper doesn't try to place items from other slots if unable from first.

[MC-11089] Long scoreboard objective titles can be offset screen
[MC-11109] Breaking a Container with Items that is connected via a solid block with a Comparator does not update the Comparator
[MC-11217] Falling Block entities start visually falling from 1 block higher than they were placed
