MCPE-25019Pick Block Does Not Work in Survival
When using a controller or mouse, middle clicking on a block in survival does not bring the block out of the inventory into the player's hand. Instead, it only works in Creative Mode.
To Reproduce
Have a block (e.g. Oak Planks) in your inventory, not your hotbar. Look at a placed block (e.g.Oak Planks) and press the Pick Block button. The block that was in your inventory is not moved to your hand.

Thats not a bug, that is a feature only for creative
Incorrect, Pick Block works in survival, but only on items you currently have in your inventory.
This is even more noticeable on the 1.2 Xbox beta (build 1.2.0.20), since it works in the old Console Edition in Survival just fine. In 1.2 beta it doesn't work at all in survival.
