Can really see a lot of potential with the Crafter going forward. Much like the redstone room in the Ancient Cities, an interesting crafting puzzle could seat itself nicely within the Trial Chambers; perhaps crafting a certain item from items gathered from Trial Chamber Chests, can trigger a redstone circuit to open a door to a new area of the Trial Chamber.
While I see how this could take away from the combat focus of these areas, it may provide a challenge and also introduce players to how the crafter works.
I feel like it would really work as a storytelling aspect and really reflect the 15 years of Minecraft - crafting is an important feature of Minecraft. Maybe it doesn't have to be a new item. Perhaps each Trial Chamber (or at least the large ones - depending on how its procedurally generated) could have one of these doors and will hint at a pre-existing Minecraft craftable item that you need to craft in the Crafter in order to open the door. The chambers will provide you with the resources needed to make said item but it is for the player to figure out what item specifically.
