I am excited to see copper getting a designated update that isn't focused on blocks! I've always loved the addition of copper, but was disappointed that it wasn't very useful outside of building. I've always thought it would be perfect addition to redstone and was even more disappointed when we didn't get Copper redstone blocks from the Trial Chambers. Specifically I remember seeing some concept art for a copper fan block that would blow air and lift players / entities, which I thought would be a great addition to the game for minigames, parkour, mob farms, item transportation, etc. I could see a 3-5 blocks of air force being a good middle ground, like its not too low that the air-lift is useless but it's also not too high that the player dies or this machine replaces water streams (8 blocks). Or a potential idea is to set the amount of air force the same way calibrated skulk sensors are.
Copper is also really good at conducting heat, so perhaps the copper fan could be upgraded to a copper fire vent and send a two block flame when activated. Again, this could be used in the trial chambers or as a trap for other structures. Like the copper fan players could use this in redstone contraptions or for minigames / parkour.
Last idea I want to pitch is for the copper button and original concept of the copper golem to be added. Instead of creating a copper chest when spawned in I think the golem should interact with copper in general, allowing players to choose it's functionality.
