You can move around freely when spectating the Ender Dragon
The bug
If you left click on the Ender Dragon to spectate through its eyes, nothing happens. If you press shift after this happens, you are telported to the current position of the dragon, as if you had been spectating. Between the time that you click on the dragon and the time that you press shift, you can move around freely.
By contrast, spectating the dragon using /spectate @n[type=ender_dragon] does work somewhat– the command makes you spectate the main dragon hitbox, rather than the head as would be expected.

The end sometimes has blue fog reminiscent of the overworld.
This can be seen in a few conditions
1. Entering the end for the first time after starting Minecraft
2. Sometimes when reloading chunks
This however is hard to reproduce. I have discovered pretty consistent reproduction steps via MC-46486
Reproduction Steps
- Set your render distance to 10 chunks
- Enter a bugged state by trying to spectate the ender dragon
- Move away from the island

- This wouldn't happen
