MCPE-187726beforeOnPlayerPlace custom component doesn't fire if "replace_block_item" is true
The new stable release brings the "replace_block_item" option to "minecraft:block_placer" but it still doens't fix the following bug:
-When "replace_block_item" is set to true and the block has "beforeOnPlayerPlace" as a custom component event, it doesn't fire the event.
Steps to Reproduce:
Install the addon attached in this report. The addon has 2 blocks and 2 items, one item ("working_double_block") has "replace_block_item" set to true and the other one ("not_working_double_block") has "replace_block_item" set to false. Both blocks also have the same custom component that has "beforeOnPlayerPlace".
Observed Results:
When the "not_working_double_block" custom block is placed, the "beforeOnPlayerPlace" event is not fired unlike the other custom block "working_double_block".
Expected Results:
Both custom blocks should fire the "beforeOnPlayerPlace" event.

For now there is a workaround
you can add a custom component to the item with the onUseOn event
(you would have to get the block using a method like this however)
onUseOn: e => { const block = e.blockFace == 'North' ? e.block.north(1) : e.blockFace == 'East' ? e.block.east(1) : e.blockFace == 'South' ? e.block.south(1) : e.blockFace == 'West' ? e.block.west(1) : e.blockFace == 'Up' ? e.block.above(1) : e.block.below(1) }Note that this event triggers after the block is placed, but before the itemStack is updated
