Powered end rails flip direction, breaking existing connections
The bug
When placing rails, powered rails facing in their default north/south direction, will break their connection to existing rails and flip to attach to the new rail placed next to them if they are on the end of a line.
The screenshot shows lines of powered rail and normal rail being placed. R1 is row 1 and R2 is row 2. This is the order they are placed in. The numbers next to the row 2s show the placing order of the powered rails in row 2 and their effect on row 1. This does not affect rail lines already facing east/west.

Confirmed in 13w11a.
Confirmed in 1.5.2
PLEASE, I'm actually trying to make use of minecarts in 152, just as you intended. We need a 153 redstone supplemental update for this, pistons, torch timings, etc.
Confirmed for 1.8.1-pre3.
I can confirm this still happens in 1.8.1 pre- release 3. It is quite annoying to have to deal with.
Still an issue in 1.9 and 1.9.1 pre-release 3. Somewhat annoying as it prevents the building of many good designs in North/South orientations. I hope this gets fixed.
Confirmed for 1.12.1
Confirmed for 1.13-prerelease-1
Confirmed for 1.13-pr-2
confirmed for 1.13-pre4
confirmed for 1.13-pre5
confirmed for 1.13-pre6
confirmed for 1.13-pre7
Confirmed for release 1.13, this seriously needs fixing.
Is this still the case in 19w42a? (considering the fix of
MC-791)Seems fixed to me. Rail placement is a tad bit odd, but not nearly as bad as in this issue.
