A new image of the new creature - commonly referred to as "Endermen" - was released recently (enhanced here, for light levels). This image is much more up-close-and-personal than the first, giving us a good look at the new creatures. It would seem that wearing a pumpkin prevents the new mob from seeing you, although this is unconfirmed at present.
Additionally, Notch mentioned a possible name-change for the newly minted mob, "Farlander" being suggested and, apparently, already in heavy use.

Hope The Texture And/Or Model Is Changed
(btw, keep it enderman)
I may -have- to update, but I really don't ****ing want endermen. They really are unnerving as all hell.
Very dark caves are just a byproduct of the world. Creepers are HILARIOUS. They're a fantastic joke.
