Stairs, slabs, trapdoors and doors

Doors and trapdoors can have holes in their texture but no half-transparent pixels. Stairs and slabs are always drawn solid. Shaped blocks can’t have model, rotation or light.

Shaped blocks have a hard limit, because each design has to borrow a whole set of vanilla states: 3 stairs, 3 slabs, 24 trapdoors and 25 doors. Past that, loading tells you the shape is full.
