The Diagonal Window Air Vent Bug Dilemma

Description
***INTENDED FOR A BUG REPORT***

This simple example demonstrates that air will not travel past diagonal windows to other "open" region within an enclosed space. I suspect that changes to block collisions is causing the problem, but guesses are currently going at a rate of 3 for a dollar.

I found this bug when building an octagonal airlock using windows (because...hey...why not?). Locating the air vent at the bottom or even at the sides of the space resulted in no air in the walkway between doors. Only option 3, which was my least desirable configuration for aesthetic reasons, worked correctly.

In the words of one anonymous space engineer, "I can't breathe...!!!"
