It looks like we're finally going to have a use for slime balls. Jens has tweeted that we'll be able to use slime balls to make the new Pistons in 1.7 into Sticky Pistons, what that means exactly, we haven't figured out yet.

Actually Jeb just got rid of the flying made by pistons because he thinks it's silly.

..you've touched a slimeball have you? Just because slimes jump (or seem to bounce) doesn't mean that they are bouncy.
Notch has said they are bouncy

I don't like the idea of a piston sticking to a block. Seems a bit odd.

it's kind obvious that normal pistons can 'push' stuff while 'sticky pistons' will also be able to push a block but then pull it when switching their state off

I, CoolOppo tweeted to jeb the following o the 10th of June:
@jeb_ Make the stick pistons be crafted with slimeballs, and make slimes more common!

Check:

Just kidding, I'm sure a lot of people thought of the same thing...
