Clearly, Jeb ought to fix the spawner bug to allow for more than pigs. Honestly, I'd only support this in creative or adventure, and a simple bug fix would solve this. You don't have to make spawners craftable (and if you do, you might as well make eight nether stars involved).
This would be good for Creative Mode. However, as for Survival Mode...
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
That would make the world's easiest mob farms of all time, which can already be done with spawners you find in dungeons and some simple traps. I support this for Creative Mode, but if this existed in Survival, I'd have to fly to Sweden and kill every Mojang employee in the slowest manner possible. The "Zoidberg" answer in your poll is kinda dumb...
In survival I don't see this happening. The ingredients are way to hard to get, and it is pretty much just for use in Multiplayer shops. Wouldn't it just be simpler to add the different spawners to the creative inventory?

Ever hear of something called running away? Its like running towards them, but without the confrontation and death.
Alright, since the most common argument against this kind of thing in survival seems to be "it might promote the building of *gasp* mob grinders!!!", I have to ask, "So what?"
What's wrong with mob grinders that makes you people hate them so much? Is it really any different than an automatic melon farm or egg machine? I don't think so. The "it makes everything easy" argument doesn't hold water either, because, let's face it, killing mobs in the overworld at night is already stupidly easy. In fact, I'd say a mob grinder is even slower than nighttime grinding, not to mention it only produces items from one kind of mob. Tower grinders solve that, but are very resource and time intensive to build, and hardly even work on multiplayer. Not to mention, most people don't even know how to build a mob grinder. And, if nothing else, if mob grinders really bother you THAT much, you can simply not build them!

This has been suggested dozens of times. While I do support it, I feel they should be much more difficult to obtain.
What... What's this?
Am I dreaming? This... Is awesome!
All though, we still can't craft them.
But still! I'm happy this is added in.
Also, before I leave for a few, I want to add in:
I know that it was not me who brought this on, but this is a happy time!
I know it cannot be obtained with out /give or Creative with TooManyItems, so it doesn't make much of a difference.
But still, it's a damn good thing to happen, mine and many other people's wishes have come through.
You can't - I think that's the NEI menu.
nei is not enough items its kind of like tmi but it has diffrent features heres a link http://lmgtfy.com/?q=chicken bones mods&l=1
...Good luck finding mob eggs in survival.
We don't need to go encouraging people to build more mob grinders
I Solve practical problems
in creative this could be used for maps...
too much free stuff

Add spawners to creative. Fix spawners so they're not all swiney and stuff. This would solve your problem.
