Seems to work as expected in 15w51b for the most part. Redstone dust connects through transparent blocks and transparent blocks that can have redstone put on them act like slabs (stairs, hoppers).
Redstonedust still does not run down the side of redstone blocks but redstone blocks are power sources so I don't think it really matters.
Don't know if it affects anything but I am using java 9
