Previously, I tried hooking up a "rapid pulser" to some dispensers, but it failed miserably (never lasted for more than 2 or 3 seconds) so I decided to try out a 1 tick "repeater clock"hooked up to the pistons.
However, this design needs to have a one tick pulse "injected" into the circuit first. Is there a way to create a circuit/device that outputs power for one tick only?

The full changelog is listed on Mojang's website (copied below).
The line you mention, "Added a few other things for players to discover," is in the Tutorial World section. Therefore I suspect it just means they added some cool touches to the tutorial world to demonstrate the use of new items (pistons, stacked fences, etc), to add to its charm. They may have added some little easter eggs to this world too, but I can't say for sure.

The reason why it stops working is the repeater happens to lock the other repeater when it is powered. Chances are that design was not made to be spammed. A solution I'd suggest is make a fill clock (if you want your construct to be activated every tick all the time) or if you want it to pulse when ever you flick the lever (just like the pulse generator you where using) you can use the second design I listed.
(note: all screenshots are in 1.9 but everything listed will work in 1.8)
Design 1: The Fill Clock.
This is when you have 2 commandblocks running a fill command twice every tick, and looks something like this.
The commands the command blocks are running (from top down) are
/fill ~ ~-1 ~5 ~ ~-1 ~ redstone_block
/fill ~ ~1 ~5 ~ ~1 ~ stone
How it works is the top commandblock is run after the bottom commandblock. So the area get filled with stone (unpowering all commandblocks along the blocks) and then instantly replaced with redstone blocks re-powering them all.
Design 2:
So this design uses the same principal as design 1. It will power what you want for 1 tick, and it looks like this.
From the top to bottom the commands are
/setblock 297 91 983 minecraft:stone
/setblock 297 91 983 minecraft:redstone_block
The commandblock to the right has the command /say hi just to prove that the stone block beside it (the block the /setblock targets) does it powered for 1 tick. and it looks like this
Hopes this helps!

What you actually want is a clock circuit. The simplest is a repeater, a block of any kind, three pieces of redstone, and one redstone torch, arranged like so:
The torch should be attached to the side of the block, and the repeater powering into the adjacent side of the block and (to avoid burning out the torch) set to 2 ticks or more.
This will give you a stable clock signal that you can pull from almost any part of the circuit. You can easily add an on/off switch on top of the block to stop and restart the cycle.
