MC-9374Light Levels in debug screen perpetually equal 15
I noticed this many versions back when I was trying to figure out lighting for a large room. Even if it is night time, if you open the debug screen with F3 and look at the sl and rl values, they always say "15".
Edit: Although this has not been updated since 13w06a, it has existed in all intermediate versions through this update (14w04a). Another screenshot is also available in MC-45473, although the bug there is different.
Environment

As of update for 14w04a, has been tested on a computer with the following stats:

For the appearance of blocks this works as intended. "Bright" video setting will make the blocks appear as if you had a Night Vision potion.
However, in the debug screen (F3) the sl (Sky Light) and rl (Real Light) values do not change from 15 when in open air, making it impossible to tell light values above ground. Refer to MC-9374 for a report on this aspect.
My bad, sorry. This works as intended.
I remembered I reported this and it is still occurring in 1.7 snapshots. Why is it works as intended?
Update added as of 14w04a
