Time for a new snapshot! The major changes are:
  • Textures for blocks and items now have individual image files (read more below)
  • Improved death messages
  • Improved naming (using the anvil) of containers and mob eggs
  • Trapped chests now give off the redstone signal through walls
  • Improved hoppers and made them controllable by redstone
  • Updated language files
  • Language files can now be updated via the background downloader (no need for a new Minecraft release)

Notes about the new texture pack system
Starting from this snapshot and forward, blocks and items will no longer load their artwork from one big sheet of sprites. Instead, they’ll have individual files for each image they’re using. The benefit from this is that it will be easier for us to support custom blocks and items in the future. It will also allow us to mix and match block artwork resolutions, and make sure that you get graphics for blocks that your current texture pack isn’t updated for.
We’ve written more information about the new texture pack format in the Minecraft wiki, here:http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Texture_Packs
// The Minecraft Team

the Trapped Chest thing is pretty great for hiding even more elaborate traps behind walls.
Still have no idea what the hell hoppers do, as they weren't working in the previous snapshot.

 
From what I know hoppers will take items one at a time from a chest above them, or floating items that are thrown on them, and will either place it in a chest below it, or transfer the items to an adjacent hopper.
