The reason they're trying to eliminate this is because in an
alternate form, lots of things that would normally attack you
won't. I ran into this bug with my enchanter - accidently
found a way to move with minor illusion up despite the latest
fixes. I was running around as a bed and *only* the things I
attacked would attack me back. It was like having a permanent
form of invisibility that never went down. Even griffins and
hill giants left me alone.

Yes, it's been /bugged.
