It seems the stained glass is using the code for glass from either early beta or late alpha. Prior to snapshot 12w08a, torches being not placeable on glass was standard game-behavior. I am sure it will have the new glass-behavior in regards to torches in one of the upcoming snapshots or official version releases.
