Note block doesn't play when hit with sword

Before 1.6.1, hitting a note block with a sword in Creative mode would just break it. However, what should happen now is that, instead of the sword breaking, the note block's note would be played. WHat actually happens is that the note block still doesn't break, but no note is played.

How to reproduce:
1. Open a world in Creative mode
2. Place a note block
3. Hit the note block with a sword

You hit it with the left button, didn't you ? Use the right button.
See MC-18368

Yes, but the right button makes the pitch higher by a note, which I don't want to do. In survival, when you left click on a note block, it plays the note that is already set on the note block, which is what I want to do in creative. Since swords don't break note blocks (or any block) it would make sense that it played the note instead.

Yes, it would make sense if the Note Block played the note, wouldn't it?
I don't really classify it as a suggestion... I find it IS a bug.
But... I guess I wouldn't challenge a moderator...

Left clicking a note block never played the note:
Clicking with the left mouse button with any tool or weapon equipped destroyed the note block up to Minecraft 1.6. To play a note a note block has to be left clicked with any other item or bare hands
Since 1.6 left clicking with a sword in creative does not destroy any block, so the described issue is a) working as intended and b) a feature request to have changed the sword behaviour.

If it's worth noting, MC-169346 seems to clone this issue.
