It's now 8 days later, and it's fixed in the nightly build. Although in contrast to what it says in the blog post, it's a perfectly white square.

This feels like the equivalent of patching the ai in GTA cars, so they can no longer randomly crash into each other and cause huge pileups. If no one can turn it into a working exploit, it should be left alone for the sheer weird/cool factor.

I agree, but it does feel like it has a lot of exploit potential.
