Glass Panes are a forthcoming block that was announced by Jeb in a tweet that will be be released in 1.8. They can currently be used in-game through the preview release. They have similar placement behaviour as Redstone and Fences and have the same texture as Glass. They cannot currently be placed horizontally. Glass Panes can be mined and picked up without being broken. (about 1:45 min)

Glass Panes can be crafted by placing 6 Glass blocks in a rectangle.
