New Variant Of The Mineshaft

Lets face it, the underground Minecraft structure that is the Mineshaft has been almost the same old, generic structure ever since it was added to the game. The only real difference is the rare Dark Oak variant that only generates in Badlands biomes. Why not spice things up a bit? I suggest that something about like 1 in every 1000 or so Mineshafts that the game generates should be a new variant of the same old Mine shaft where all ores that can spawn at the level the Mineshaft is generated at will literally generate absolutely everywhere, significantly increasing the chances that you could stumble upon this rare Mineshaft type and possibly be loaded down with any ore in the game, including diamonds.

    Don't you think that would be a bit over-powered?

    I think that a mineshaft filled with that much ore would be kind of unfair, at least on SMP servers. Maybe not have every ore be so frequent, but just the one that generate at the level of the central dirt room in the mineshaft. If regions of the mineshaft generate low enough to have other ores, they would spawn at normal frequency.
