Centered glass bricks, that go inside other bricks
Kalphiter:
Definitely possible to overlap bricks, but it will be a problem for the brick loading implementation that skips overlapping bricks.

Why would you make your window frame invisible?

Not the window frame.
You would place the window brick which normally would have no collision.
This would give the visual effect of the window.
Then you would place normal (5X height let's say) brick inside of the window frame that would keep collision, but rendering would be turned off.
It would appear that the window brick was keeping you from going through, when in fact there was an invisible brick inside of it.
Pretty Simple.
Another solution.
Would it be possible to make a thin water brick with visible sides and non-undulo?
If this was the case, you would only need to turn on collision.
Profit.

Yes, that is what OP wants. You just summarized op in a sentence.

I would rather make a special window glass brick rather than a frame. That frame only has one style but glass fits anything. I'm pretty sure the reason op wants this is so the glass is actually visible. Otherwise you could just leave the window empty and put some invisible bricks to prevent people from going through.

I kind of remembered that you could make a brick a water brick and not have those features but I might be wrong. I guess I'm thinking about the zone bricks here but since they are invisible you can't see the water effect.

You can turn rendering, raycasting, and collision on with them, and they look fine.
Seems like you could just make it a zonebrick?
Nymethus:
OK. So there are normal bricks and water bricks. and zone bricks? are they just water bricks? how many brick types are there? what type is the coffin? why can't one just make another type?
This is why I said:
