Mob Ideas:
Golden Chickens
It would be like from Jack and the Beanstalk. They would lay golden eggs! Maybe you could get golden feathers too.
Angels
If you fall a large height and an angel is near, it might catch you and lift you back up. They cannot be attacked.
Block Ideas:
Cloud Blocks
Like square clouds. Would drift if wind blows it, but other than that they float there. Often just floating in a random place, but sometimes in clumps or even a cloud landmass. Once attacked they immediately puff away.
Lifestone
An idea I had. I thought it would fit perfectly here! Practically it is an ore with little pink gem hearts on it. When mined you get Lifestone. You can use that to create life to mobs (Read on my thread) or make life blocks that refill life when stood on. This ore could be sometimes in the Aether, and even the Life Blocks could be in some areas.
Also, if Notch ever adds horses, you could add Unicorns and Pegasuses for the Aether.
I really like this idea, but it seems you are focused too much on it being the opposite of the Nether. And also you should tell what the mobs here would drop (especially the slime-looking thingy).
Really great, especially the Glowstone portals! My problem is that you say that you should fall into the Overworld when you fall off. As cool as this sounds, it would be somewhat immersion-ruining if you fell from a cloud to your doom and just as you reached terminal velocity:

We had actually been discussing that. Aerwhale would drop an gas bladder (ghasts would also drop these) that could be used for creating simpler and more reliable airships, Zephyrs would drop Galestone blocks, Swets would drop snowballs, Phygs/Pigasus would drop Feathers when hit, bacon when killed. Sheepuffs would drop cloth & string when sheared, and maybe leather when killed. Sentries would drop Crystal blocks. I haven't really posted anything that I'm not 100% on though.

Loading Overworld [] [] [] [] [] [] []
SPLAT!
you do realize that you would be at the pea of your fall when you loaded into the top of the overworld, so it'd still be a while after the loading screen before you died.(provided you didn't land in water and manage to survive) And if it helps, just think of it as SHORTENING the amount of time that you'd be falling for.
There's also no real reason that you specifically need to even show the same loading screen that is used when you go from overworld to the nether and vica versa. It could be a custom loading thing done in the background while your cahracter just floats at the bottom of the aether

*Angels and Unicorns are not what we are looking for in the Aether. We are looking for indirect damage and/or uniqueness.
*Cold Cloud already deals with a cloud block, and moving blocks are in Floatsand.
*Lifestone has already been discussed in a way by having a "healing spring" liquid in the Aether, but it was decided that it would not be added.
*I did like the Golden Chickens! I would love to have those flying around!

I once saw a chicken push a creeper off of a cliff. I never looked at chickens the same way ever again. That is of course until I needed feathers.
YES!!! I want this so bad now! Make it Notch please! And

I love this idea, and I can't wait to see it. My only point of reservation is I'd rather see Notch make improving the main world a priority over adding new dimensions. Things like the 2x2 crafting, Oceancraft, and Alchemy feel like bigger priorities.

I agree with golden chickens, but angels and unicorns, no. The aether isn't suposed to be heaven, it is suposed to be heavenISH

WTB! What the bacon! Bacon makes the world go round!
This is one of the best ideas I have ever seen. I really hope it gets made (and if it doesn't get implemented by Notch, maybe there could be an aether mod).
Yes this is most definatly something we need. But Notch is right, why add a new world when the nether is so limited? Im sure everyone would like to see The Nether updated and The Aether implemented. But Notch will probaly update The Nether before he implements The Aether.
Aether rap:Didn't ya hear the Nether isnt cool,
If you didnt you're such a fool!
I wanna go in the sky!
with a pigasus cause i wanna fly!
There is gonna flying sheep!
I hope that blue slime dosent eat me in my sleep!
Its really bright,
I feel okay,But somthing isnt right!
Whoa what was that gust?!
Eww My pants are covered with dust!
Thats the Aether for ya!
Lifestone + Dispenser = A box that emits a beam that heals the nearest person
You have to be careful with health. if you went around willy nilly healing people to full health, the game would suck, and there would be no balance. Perhaps if you could only use it once per minecraft day, and it only healed like 5 hearts. suggestions like these need to be more thought out before posted.

Really wish Notch would add some more Nether mobs. With only Ghasts and Zombie Pigmen, it's rather limited.

All-in-all if this doesn't seem to make it's way into the game, I can see programmer's working on a mod.
100% support, who knew a suggestion would get this far.

He did talk about the aether in a podcast, but said he'd want to make the nether more useful first before implementing the aether.
