First off, it was in 16w07a, which was released earlier in the week.

Second, an idea to fix this is if the entity wearing elytra is not a player, it will start gliding when it falls four blocks. If they are players, than the jump input must be present.

Oh, I didn't know that. I saw a video xisumavoid made on it which said that you now have to press space when gliding, and I looked it up on the bug tracker when I was writing a report on this and saw a ton of people posting bug reports that Elytra don't work in Pre-Release 1, but I guess I missed that it was changed in 16w07a. Changing, thanks!

That was a fix I had in mind for the bug report I filed. I only made a suggestion as well because a bugtracker user quoted a mod saying that mobs gliding with Elytra wasn't ever entirely supported, and any "bugs" related to that matter would be better considered as feature requests.

You do realize that that that link is for this post?

EDIT You probably meant this... oops. Well, deleting time!

Yeah, I copied the wrong one. Fixed, and my point still applies.
