When you are making your redstone suggestions, please note that Java and Bedrock will not have the exact same the same redstone systems - this would require redoing redstone system completely on one platform or the other. The two systems are functionally different and are going to stay that way. Please be sure to tag your suggestions with (Java) or (Bedrock).

Pulse Emitter and Current Toggler

Pulse Emitter - 3 modes:

On signal (1st) - When the Emitter receives power, it will generate ONE pulse 1 tick long.

On update (2nd) - When the signal behind the Emitter changes state (from on to off or back again), a pulse 1 tick long is emitted.

While active (3rd) - While the Emitter is receiving power, it will emit pulses 1 tick long and 1 tick apart.

 

Current Toggler - When the Current Toggler receives power (even a pulse), it will toggle the outputting signal. In other words, a Toggle Flip-Flop that works with long signals.

    The pulse emitter in mode 1 is equivalent to a rising-edge monostable circuit (a.k.a. a "one-shot"). I like that, but would prefer to have it configurable as either a rising- or falling-edge monostable. Perhaps an additional mode?

    The pulse emitter in mode 2 seems like it has the same behavior as an Observer, except that an Observer detects a change of power level, not just on/off. Is that the point?

    The pulse emitter in mode 3 would be a lot more compact than the equivalent of a comparator clock with an additional side input at power level 15 to disable it. I could definitely use that.

    The current toggle: Why not just call it a T Flip-Flop then? I'd love to have a one-block T flip-flop.

    I think it would be better to have different blocks for each described modes, so it would be possible to regulate the length of the pulse by right clicking the block

    I like the first idea, I don't understand the second. The third I disagree with. With all the creative ways people have come up with to make redstone clocks, a lot of them would be ruined by one block that could do it all. Plus, using other redstone clocks makes it a lot more customizable and easier to use in different circuits. I think it's an interesting suggestion that could be helpful, but then again, MC isn't really about the end result, it's weird and complicated journey you take (that usually ends up in a really stupid machine)

    It's the same for the fourth. Especially because T flip-flops are normally really big, it would be a big jump to making it all one block. It still might be useful, though.
