Creepers and Mob Griefing

There are posts about disabling mob griefing individually, but I think that creepers should have their own category. I am perfectly fine with most forms of mob griefing, but when I go to disable it, my only reason for doing so is to disable creeper craters. In my opinion, it isn't fun to have to repair a crater in my landscape or my house, yet also I like having small quirks like the endermen picking up blocks. Perhaps a gamerule called "creeperCraters" would be enough.

I would like to try a mode/rule where creepers only explode if you hit them or another mob hits them. They would still creep on you and stand close but not explode until they take damage. I think that might suit them thematically a little better and reduce the number of craters you have to clear. You could also use them in combat to kill other mobs. I also kinda like creepers, I think they are cute, it would be nice if i could have a couple hang around as friends.

I couldn't possibly agree with this more. I don't mind when they explode on me but the way they grief the landscape ruins it for me. I also build in the nether quite a bit and would love for this feature to work with ghasts as well.
