Using the map editor to place land right next to deep water does not create normal edges. Further, a thin strip of grass though deep water simply displays as shallow water, despite allowing you to walk over it and place items on it as normal. Picture attached showing how various patches of water render.

Thank you for the report, we know about it,

Finally, this problem has been solved (for 0.8 that will be out at friday) not only in the map editor.
As long as extensions in the map editor usability.

P.S. This is the longest time of the bugreport to be open (more than 9 months), but we just had other priorities in the game, I hope you understand.
