Please, this is still an issue. No, it isn't resolved. Pick Block will NOT work on Redstone Ore if it is lit.
What I expected - when I middle-clicked Redstone Ore, I would get get Redstone Ore whether it's lit or not.
What happened - middle-clicking lit Redstone Ore gave me nothing - not even unlit Redstone Ore.
This doesn't happen to Redstone Lamps - when you middle-click them, whether they're lit or not, you still get a Redstone Lamp (unlit)
I put this ticket in yesterday and it was closed under "works as intended".
What Dinnerbone was saying is that you can't obtain activated blocks, where as I was trying to obtain an inactive block by middle-clicking an active block.
The ticket I put in yesterday was closed for the wrong reason. I highly doubt it's working as intended.

Dude that's how it works. It is like if you use pick block for leaves you get a sapling. Not a leaf. You have to use inventory editing. /give (username) (name of object) (quantity) (Data Tag) (Data Parsing) (Other Stuff I Don't Know About) That's how we get off redstone torches and stuff like that.
The bug is that if you use pick block on a lit redstone ore, it doesn't give you anything, it should give you the regular redstone ore though
