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).

Upside down stairs should cut redstone from its back side

Upside down stairs have one side that is the same size as a full block which should stop redstone passing through that side of it and the bottom of it from connecting. This could lead to some more compact redstone since only three sides can connect to the redstone on the bottom.

    basically act like a block from one side and a slab for the other, also, missing texture on the side of stairs

    And this should also give the ability to take a signal from the top Redstone dust. and thereby prevent the new feature of Redstone being redirected can have a workaround using stairs. As seen in the image below the repeater behind the yellow concrete would usually not be powered but changed. in the middle Redstone the repeater should be able to pull signal from the backside of the stair, but as seen on the other stair it cant pull signal through the block.

    This is a really good idea, how would it work from the sides of the stair?

    This would make for crazy small wiring (in computational redstone, at least), especially for (stair) slab towers. Would love this feature

    That would be really useful, I've been blocked so many times thinking "Why is this not a feature ?" there's so many different applications to this simple feature (I'm not even sure if it's difficult to implement, it seems so but there's other complicated blocks, like the observer or the skulk sensor)

    for binary bussing in computational redstone this would make a world of a difference! I'm totally here for it!

    I'm gonna make a mod about this idea.
