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).

Magnet Block (Redstone Component)

I'm well aware that the magnet block idea already exists, but my take on it varies quite a bit. My version of the magnet block would attract ferrous metals, but it would be redstone powered. In order to operate the magnet, you would need some form of redstone signal. The activation of the magnet would pull ferrous items/blocks towards it. With a change in the redstone design, you could reverse the polarity of the magnet and push ferrous items away. This block could be utilized for more sophisticated redstone doors, or just simple searching for metals... The possibilities are endless.

    I recommend a composition of copper, redstone, and iron or netherite. Copper for the 'coil', iron to provide a core, and redstone to enable compatibility with redstone components. I recommend redstone at the top and bottom middle slots, iron or netherite in the very center, and that the rest be filled in with copper.
    I like the concept you have posted here as it would greatly expand the range of possible mechanical systems in minecraft.

    I like this idea if you can craft a magnet with copper and redstone and iron or a netherite scrap or a netherite ingot. Maybe the netherite-ingot-magnet would be the strongest magnet. Maybe the netherite-scrap-magnet would be the 2nd strongest magnet. Maybe an iron-ingot-magnet would be the weakest magnet.
