In 1.4.2 the players were able to obtain one stack simply by right-clicking on the needed crafted item.

Example:

Put some woods in the workbench;
Right-click on the wooden planks.

What I was expected it to do is to give you the max possible number of items obtainable limited to a stack. It worked in 1.4.2, but now in 1.4.4 seems to not work.
