MC-261223Editing a hanging sign with a right click doesn't work while holding a placeable object
Holding a block for example and right clicking a hanging sign, does not edit it, but tries to place blocks, regardless of pressing shift.
For normal signs/wall signs, this works when not holding shift, as expected.
The reason for this is probably described in this image:
The hanging sign allows 2 different placement styles, which would not be possible anymore (easily) when it would instead edit the top sign. This could be overcome by adding a check for right clicking the bottom of the sign, vs, the front and backface.

Unconfirmed.
I can edit the back of the sign. Perhaps OP means they can't edit the back of a hanging sign while holding a placeable block: see MC-261223
Then this is MC-261223. While older, this is a lot more vague and misleading.
I'm forward-resolving this issue as a duplicate of MC-261223, as that ticket is more detailed.
