Stepping functionality does not work in all directions

Potentially a feature request but there's always a possibility it isn't.

When walking towards a block such as a slab, the player gets immediately offset upwards instead of forcing the player to jump on top instead. However, this mechanic does not apply to all dirctions: a similar such setup on a wall causes the player to get caught on the edge of the block, something which ends up being a major annoyance in several situations.
