This is not a bug. It may be an incorrect use of syntax or a limitation in the software. For further discussion on the matter, please consult the BYOND forums.
To be honest i don't think displacement should work like that, it looks like a bug.

The code:
/mob
    plane = 10

/obj/screen_controller/mob
    appearance_flags = PLANE_MASTER
    plane = 10
    screen_loc = "1,1"
    render_target = "123"

/mob/Login()
    . = ..()
    var/obj/screen_controller/mob/S = new
    client.screen.Add(S)
    S.add_filter("AS1", 2, list("type" = "displace", icon=icon('96x96.dmi', "distort-dwarf"), size=127))
    client.screen.Add(S)


What i was trying to do: Make all mobs at the same plane taller, but when you move out of the middle of it weird things happen.

The problem is: When you apply displacement to the entire plane it only affects the center of it. If it's supposed to be like that we should atleast have another tag or something
