When you place a normal pumpkin in a dispencer, and then powering it, it will give the smoke effect but nothing will happen, the pumpkin will stay in the dispencer.

Confirmed as issue.
This is not "works as intended" because:
a) Other blocks are dropped
b) It also doesn't move pumpkins into other dispensers/droppers/inventories
I discovered that when you try to create a snow golem using a dispenser with a pumpkin, it will work.
