Lectern disappears when placing and there is a villager in the block

What I expected to happen was...:
I expect that if there is a villager in the way of me placing the lectern I just wouldn't be able to place it.

What actually happened was...:
Lectern gets deleted from my inventory and the world

Steps to Reproduce:
1. have a lectern
2. try and place it at the same time a villager walks into the space
3. cry

I am unsure if this happens with the other workstations or not. I am also unsure if it will happen with other mobs besides villagers (iron golems or pigs for example)
