Leaf blocks (you know, the ones that grow on trees) are currently treated as solids. You can suffocate in them, monsters can spawn on them (if left darkened), and if you fall from great height onto leaves, you die from fall damage just as if you had hit dirt of the same shape.
I propose making leaf blocks a type of non-solid block. Under this scheme, players and mobs moving through through leaf blocks would move as though through still water, leaf blocks would permit breathing, monsters would not be able to spawn on leaf blocks (because monsters must spawn on a solid surface, which leaves would not count for, anymore), and leaf blocks would slow falling akin to ladders and water.

I walk on leaves while harvesting tall trees. No.
Ah, right, I thought I'd forgotten something in my proposal: one would also be able to "swim" through leaves as though through water. Basically, this would also be a method for climbing trees, as well, if you can get to the leaves.
By the way, I also currently walk on leaves when harvesting tall trees. ...or I pile up dirt underneath myself from under the branches, whichever way is easier for harvesting the particular tree I'm chopping. In any event, I think it would make more sense to treat leaves as non-solids than as solids.

Ive built a balcony out of trees that Ive grown and cut down to be flat. All Natural
Hmmm.... I didn't think about that.
So, you have leaves as the floor of your balcony? ...and you're not worried about the leaf blocks decaying under your feet?

I don't want to swim through leaves. I want to walk on them.

Well i wasnt even aware of decay, hasnt happened to me yet?
I like leaves as solid atm. It would be cool to make them non-solids, but they aren't needed at this time. Notch needs to work about making other enjoyable stuff =D

That sounds... Really awkward, actually. And if you can't stand on anything up there, what's the point of even "climbing" the tree?
I think I'd like to keep leaf blocks solid, thank you.

Are you always so pessimistic?
Yes, yes I am. A pessimist is always either right, or pleasantly surprised.

Egads..this is World of Warcraft meets Battlefield 1942 in a dark alley with way too much to drink and no discarded mattress nearby.

Interaction with fire would remain unchanged.
