The lanterns were introduced in 1.14, so I understand the low priority, but in theory they're simple - sources of light with a certain recipe. The only catch is that they have to be able to hang from blocks above them, so I'm not sure if they can be treated just like any other solid block or there's some other type of condition to be met, because they're also supposed to be sit on blocks without occupying the whole block.

Basically, they works somewhat like slabs, in the sense that they look attached to the ceiling or to the block they're placed on. The rule I've noticed is: if they're placed in a hole in the wall, they're always placed on the block below. If there's air under them, they get attached to the block above, to look like they're hanging.

I hope someone with the necessary knowledge is interested enough in these, as they're really nice looking and they give houses a more appealing interior design.
