When you clone an airblock to the location of a previously to that location cloned comparator, the comparator should be removed.
This doesn't happen, and instead the comparator stays and when you rigthclick on it, it disappears.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Clone a comparator to a new location.
2. Remove the original comparator.
3. Run the same command.
4. The comparator is still there.

Technically the blocks are removed, they just leave a "ghost block" behind. Right clicking the blocks will cause them to disappear, and if you attempt to clone the ghost blocks, it will instead clone the air block that should be there.
Also present with /fill
This issue may need to be reopened. It says it's fixed but I'm experiencing something similar in 14w10c. I'm trying to use /fill to switch around tile entities.
Steps to recreate my issue:
1. A command block with "fill ~ ~2 ~ ~ ~2 ~ dirt 0 replace air" returns "1 blocks filled", as it should.
2. Change "dirt" to "chest" will fail, returning "Data tag parsing failed: Unable to locate name/value separator for string: air".
3. Note that "fill ~ ~2 ~ ~ ~2 ~ chest 0" is successful, again returning "1 blocks filled".
If anyone would like to test, confirm, and reopen, please do. If I'm doing something wrong, please let me know.

Extra Information:
This is not only with comparators, but with all kinds of blocks that hold 'extra' NBT data.
