Item frames are self lit when placed in the world, and will be bright no matter the light level.

I don't seem to see an actual light source coming off of any of the screenshots in the various reports... seems "fullbright" has been applied.
Still happening in Snapshot 13w39a, item frames and whatever is placed on them glow as if they are fully lit, but do not give off light themselves.
Confirmed.
