Cite your sources, because he hasn't tweeted it. I assume it's on Reddit somewhere, in which case I'll never find it because the search function acts like it's broken when I try. Maybe someone just needs to teach me whatever crazy format it uses.
Edit: Found it via news post link: http://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/1m445m/using_summon_to_replace_blocks_seems_inconsistent/cc5nrrg Now I'm sad because... Well, the whole point of FallingSand trick was it made something possible through existing mechanics, supplemented with new features that didn't directly involve it. AKA you could make the game do something it wasn't intending, just easier. Now everyone is going to be using that... D:

Well, he's trying to make structures save to files instead of being free floating dependent on game version. (Currently, while the game generates structures, any specifics to their location such as spawn areas is determined solely by the game. This means if structure generation changes, the structure itself will still be there, but any game-controlled variable will shift or disappear depending on the new generation.)
Edit: I just realized what might be the problem: He is probably trying to find a way to save structure data in the current save format, so worlds will still be backwards compatible, but he can't figure out simple way to do it. He might have to make a new version of the world format to support it. Again, my assumption, and I could be completely wrong.

New Snapshot: https://mojang.com/2013/09/minecraft-snapshot-13w37a/
/setblock command to set blocks at a location, since Jeb doesn't want people relying on FallingSand. He doesn't expect to change it that would break replacing blocks, but if he ever does want to, he doesn't want people complaining.

I made my own Mega-Portal via the design in docm's video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkIotMkFrXY
This is a 23x23x23 block of Nether Portals. The increased area of the portal has a much higher spawn rate for zombie pigmen. Note that all 23 portals in the block are active. There is a bug with Nether Portal directly adjacent to each other which causes them to become invisible, which is why you only see the particles.
