Block of Redstone

The Block of Redstone is a block planned to be added in the Redstone Update.

A block of redstone acts like a strongly-powered opaque block which cannot be turned off (it deactivates attached redstone torches, powers adjacent redstone dust and redstone repeaters, and activates adjacent mechanisms). Unlike other power sources, such as a redstone torch, it will not power adjacent or attached opaque blocks. It is moveable with pistons.
