 Description   

SG Note 4

It is impossible to place torches on the top of the spawner block. Happens in both creative and survival. Crouching and trying to place the torch doesn't work either.

To reproduce:
1. Find or place a Monster Spawner block; it doesn't need to be active.
2. Place torches on the five exposed sides.
3. Torches will attach to the four vertical sides, but will not place on the horizontal top surface.

Affects 0.14.3
Moderators might want to merge this with MCPE-12279 as it covers a broader range.

Confirmed in 0.13.0. Also, crouching and trying to place the torch on top of the spawner doesn't work either.

I just found this bug. Torches could go on top of spawners before 0.13.0. It is almost like they did this on purpose.
