This would be to prevent people confusing wooden stairs with wooden planks. The data values can tell which way the stairs face, (something similar is already in place with the rails), although it would mean textures would have to be created to reflect the in-game prodecurally generated ones.

A partial list of blocks rendered differently in MCEdit than ingame:
Stairs, doors, levers, buttons, pressure plates, signs (will be particularly difficult to do), beds.

There are also blocks that look aesthetically ugly or strange, although they are not particularly an issue:
Water, lava, cake, redstone, cactus, fire.
