Step 1: Find Blaze spawner.
Step 2: Build a portal/portals around it.
Step 3: Find a way to make it so that they will go through the portal.
Step 4: Watch havoc be unleashed upon the Overworld!

Destroy, Rebuild, Plant the Seeds, Reclaim Victory.

I think I know what this "hidden feature" is. I was perusing the new .jar when I saw a texture in "mobs" that made my jaw drop. They're re-adding/adding Pigmen. If you don't believe me, look for yourself.

They gave the wither armor, similar to a charged creepers armor, its in the armor file if you want to check.
It gets the armor when its half dead, and makes it ammune to projectiles.
