And suddenly forest regions become nearly uninhabitable.
Dig the block out from under the sapling. If it's still there, then build shrines to the witch-trees until you die.
On a more serious note, it's semi-non-vanilla, but doesn't particularly wreck the gameplay. At the same time, massive unkillable jungles created by people who want to spread nature's beauty would be annoying as all hell.
I assume said protection doesn't spread to trees planted by players though, otherwise... yeah. You get the idea. Still, it's interesting, if not entirely neccesary.
It wouldn't kill you to just plant the occasional tree. Just take a stack or two of saplings with you when you're walking somewhere, or looking for somewhere to mine. Plant them at random on the way. Does you the favor of not having to immolate chestfulls of saplings every time you farm wood and leaves.
