Bounding Box Bug Bothers Boy; Brings Big Badness

Rotating affect ability to placing object. I think this is not good.

That being said, though, your custom client simply doesn't display the correct bounding boxes, which is probably what confuses you in this case.

I am aware Amber boxes are not authoritative. But I think only way this can happen is if center of box is not real center of object despite this.

Rather, because the bounding boxes are not symmetric around the center.

I think this is words that have same meaning. Unless maybe box shape is not necessarily rectangle. Either way, is this rotation matters placement intended?

It is not; rather, it is an artifact of how bounding boxes had to be specified prior to floating-point coordinates, and now that we have those it should be changed. I have a few other changes that are related to the same thing, though, so I'm shooting for fixing a couple of things in one go at some point.
