Cloned "Always Active" repeating command blocks don't activate until their "Redstone" value is toggled

Create a repeating command block and set to always on. Put in any command. Clone the command block and the clone will not be on until you change the setting to needs redstone, close out of the command block gui, then go back in and change the setting to always on again.

Edit by Zeb: This behavior also occurs when placing CTRL+Pick-Block'd repeating command blocks set to "Always Active".
