Automation

Now mojang you might not like this one so much but hear me out. For this I would like to see Drills. 

Now the reason for this is that you could add so many different things. Like you could have three types of different stages of iron ore. Stage 1: Iron ore - Drill cannot be used on it. Stage 2: Sturdy Iron Ore - 4x4 iron chunk and drill can only be used on it to pull 32 iron ore. once it reaches the 32 the chunk will break. Stage 3: Heavy Iron Ore - This can only be mined with a drill and it will give you 64 iron ore and same thing will happen, chunk breaks after 64. 

This can be used in so many way and the crafting recipe could have 1 diamond 4 iron and 4 obsidian to make the drill. Forgot to mention the drill will break when the chunk breaks.

    Huh. I think that is a pretty good idea. Although, I was thinking, why not have some sort of computer system that can build and mine, e.t.c. You give the core materials and tell it what to do, and it does it. Although, it would probably need a fuel source to get energy... and it would need additional materials to build itself and it's "arms," or whatever you want to call it. Just build a core, and with a good auto-farm, feed it materials constantly and tell it what to do, and it could kind of be like Aperture Laboratories in the game "Portal" all over again! Still, your idea is still pretty good. :-)

    With the addition of copper maybe copper can be used to make drills that work with minecarts and restone to automate mining and farming. Iron golem farms are cool are villager based farms work but they rely on mob mechanics and having blocks made for automating tasks could allow people less knowledgeable of redstone to make farms for late game. Basically adding blocks that can break, blocks that can place, blocks thats can craft, blocks that can autosort, blocks that can breed animals and being able to modify minecarts to give them more functionality for players
