Crafting stone brick slabs / sandstone slabs

With the most recent release, when crafting stone brick slabs / sandstone slabs the game no longer prioritises a stack of stone or sandstone in the inventory. Instead it will break down other items first such as an existing stack of chiseled stone or chiseled sandstone. This is a bit awkward if you're intending to create more chiseled sandstone for instance and so trying to create slabs first, as it will turn your existing stack of chiseled sandstone in the inventory to slabs, whereas before it would recognise you had sandstone in the inventory and turn that into slabs first.
