What is it?
The meltwater sensor is a block that outputs a signal when it detects an artificial source of light (glowstones, lamps, torches) with a strength greater than or equal to 11.
A powered lamp activating four meltwater sensors. The fifth sensor is too far from the lamp to activate.
Mechanics
The meltwater sensor shares mechanics from the ice block, triggering when exposed to a sufficient level of artificial light and completely ignoring sunlight.
When the requirements are met, it activates after a tick, powering redstone around and below it.
The meltwater sensor can detect artificial light sources both above and below it.
Uses
The meltwater sensor can be used as a form of optical wiring to accompany traditional wire.
This would allow two separate circuits can be placed in the same area without interfering with each other.
A compact circuit encompassing both traditional and optical wire. Because the meltwater sensor has a 1 tick delay, all three end repeaters trigger at the same time.
Maybe the recipe should add a block of ice, that would make sense. Otherwise I support having more compact Redstone circuitry.

To those of you suggesting new uses for Emeralds in the suggestions forum: Emeralds have enough uses. You can trade with villagers to get diamond armor/tools/weapons and enchants. Stop suggesting that Emeralds are useless, and learn to play Minecraft. Thanks.

How strong is the redstone signal?

Max (15).
It'd be kind of hard to make it analog, considering how its max range is 4.
OK, I think this would be useful for map makers, so, support.
