Sorry that this took us this long to answer ...

Inserters having their arms above everything is not really a bug. It's a design decision we made to simplify rendering, and it will probably stay in the engine for a while. The basic idea for working around it is to keep every building as flat as possible (it's a 2D game, after all :-) ).
I have no idea what I'm talking about.
