Probably to prevent people from making the Ender Chest too easily every single time, considering how they keep items safe from anything. They are more of an emergency storage rather than place all your items in it and drag them anywhere you want and remove the need for a home base.
The chest has a very limited number of slots, so packing around a whole base is hardly an issue. Having the materials for crafting the minimum requires 2 chests to make use of the feature is already a difficult task, and having the chests break into items rather then the chest itself is a huge blow to the whole mechanic.
People will always abuse things, so its stupid to castrate those that don't just because some people do.
Am I the only one who doesn't download the snapshots? I'm waiting for the official 1.3 to come out =) ... Gratification delay ftw. I'm going to have so much fun with all the new stuff in my world.
Snapshots are for testing. So if you have no desire to test, then they are not for you. simple as that.
Found a bug, kinda... Collision with mobs has been significantly reduced.. or doesn't really effect the player at all. Mobs still repel for the player, but the player doesn't repel from the mobs.
It's funny, about ten minutes ago I was thinking "Oooook, Mojang, that's more than enough content for one freaking update. All I really care about are the books so just release 1.3 with the bug fixes and let us goof off with all this huge update while you make the rest..."
I come to the forums, first thing I see:
Snapshot 12w24a is Ready for Testing!
Initial reaction: *facedesk*
After applying the bandages from initial reaction: "Meh. At least the Ender Chest is getting tweaked..."
Behind this sucky post count, a writer and hardcore RPer lies in wait of a reason to post...
Oh, and for the 50th time, it's pronounced MAHZ-AE-KEY-AHL, not Mah-zee-key-al, not Maze-key-al. Supposed to be spelled Mazékial.
Haven't checked it, but there was a bug in 23b that made it so that the various types of leaves didn't maintain the correct labeling when gathered via silk touch. All would end up labeled as oak leaves, even though it was clear that there were leaves of all sorts available.
As for ender chests, it's nice to see an option for secure multi-location storage, but I'd love to have a faction-oriented secure storage.
Why is everyone complaining about the enderchests? If you don't want to recraft it just use silk touch. Even if you don't it is still really easy to get ender eyes with an enderman farm and a decent blaze spawner grinder.
there isnt alot but hes probably juts doing bug fixes now, oh well, im still happy, and i dont really understand that /public thing, does it mean that you dont have to make servers anymore and u just do /public and people can join or what?
The world has to have cheats enabled. Use /publish and it will give you an IP that your friend puts into multiplayer. You both have to be on the same Wifi network or it won't work.

When my sister tries to get onto my world with my ip, it says can't resolve hostname.
help!
Why My Friend Try To Join My ''Single Player Server'' It Just say: End Of Stream -.- Help???
That happened to me too. The way my brother and I fixed it:
1. Both players close out Minecraft
2. One player opens the single player world and uses /publish
3. Second player uses that IP
4. ?????
5. Profit
The enderchests not dropping an enderchest when broken makes it balanced.
Altough I'd like to have a different kind of chest that works how enderchests did previously for single player, considering I don't play multi, at all.
And I still can't play the game on account of it bugging up and not letting blocks drop when broken and not letting me interact with blocks like chests or furnaces.

Edit: Who CARES when 1.3 comes out?!?!? Don't you impatient pricks have other things to do besides Minecraft?? At least you can PLAY the game, I can't even get that.

Cast aside your festive doylaks: dragon stuff is about to happen.
Multiplayer is lonely once you understand how it actually works.

If you can't, you just aren't crazy enough.

That was my thought exactly as I saw the added features and bug fix list. I feel as if 1.3 is right around the corner.

Sorry, I don't know how to fix that. I suggest just doing what I told DistortedDorian to do.

1. Yeah, that's probably what'll happen.
2. I read that in Fluttershy's voice.
