Redstone Functionality Regarding the Spear

Summary for those who don't want to read a lecture:

I think when combined with a dispenser, the spear should be able preform the normal jab attack when powered via redstone.

Paragraph for those who enjoy reading lectures:

With the Mounts of Mayhem drop on the way this December, I believe that additional functionality regarding the spear and how it could potentially behave when used with dispensers could be an interesting game mechanic. To elaborate, I think that a dispenser containing a spear should be able to mimic the jab attack when powered by redstone-- the spear would likely pop out of the dispenser, playing the jab animation in the same direction as the dispenser. If this were implemented into the game, I think that we would see numerous innovative traps, and farms that would utilize this mechanic, and would simply be a nice addition to the redstone toolbox.
