 Description   

The crafting formula: (white) wool + bonemeal appears in list, but since you can only dye white wool (see MCPE-8896 for reference), all the formula can possibly do is waste bonemeal. I tested it, and the formula works (on white wool only), gladly taking your bonemeal and leaving the wool unchanged.

I understand it may be beyond the scope of the game to prevent players from doing something stupid [grins], but I figured I would report this anyway to provoke a conscious decision in this (perhaps special) case.

Thanks Toby. Confirmed and assigned to a developer. Perhaps the "Wool" recipe of bonemeal + wool will be removed, but I suspect this will be changed to Works As Intended.

Unlike wood where a recipe stating "wood" can accept any type of wood, recipes with "wool" accept only plain white wool.

"Wool" could be renamed "White Wool" in the inventory and recipes to remove the ambiguity that the wool dying recipes could accept (but do not) any color of wool.
