Sniffers Should Dig Up More Plants

The Sniffer currently only digs up Torchflowers and Pitcher Plants. While these are cool, we could use more plants, not only for decoration, but for actual utility. Give us a reason to actively find Sniffers. For example, a plant that when put into a suspicious stew/brewing stand, gives an completely new effect that's really useful. Or a Venus Fly Trap-like plant that defends against mobs. Also, Torchflowers should glow, and Pitcher Plants should have Fly particles that can be bottled and placed on specific blocks/items. That is my pitch, have a good day.

    What if torchflowers set undead on fire and pitcher plants poison arachnids if they step on them? This makes flower gardens a desirable feature for all builds and shouldn't be too op if they effects can be spread to the player. 

    Sniffers can also dig up: a crop that applies potion affects to food (stackable potions baby!) and a tree with a fancy wood-set. 

    Sniffers should also have a very, very low chance of digging up sniffer saddles and sniffer armors. This will bring storage carts and tanks to Minecraft.
