So far, squids are underwater, passive mobs that drop ink sacs. While Notch has hinted that there will luckily be more underwater content, I have to say that squids fail in comparison to their real life counterparts.
I say that first off, squids should be passive EXCEPT for boats. This creates the image of the giant squid flipping boats and such. Imagine in multiplayer, getting in your boat to find a new continent, but then being stranded by squids.
Second, Krakens should be introduced. These would be bigger green squids that attack anything. They can spawn in grotto-like areas or closed off water areas and protect a treasure chest, much like in a regular dungeon.
Finally, ink sacs should be used to make smoke bombs. I understand that alot of the gun and bomb ideas are dumb because Minecraft isn't about that, but since we have minecarts and will hopefully have full fledged trains later on, I think that a primitive smoke bomb shouldn't be that hard to allow.
Well I believe that since Notch is going to add underwater content that oceans will increase, but I still believe that the oceans the way they are can fit Krakens. They're not going to be twice the size by the way, but still significantly bigger.

And actually, Kalamari is a pretty decent idea. Pork is way to easily available to give you the ~3 hearts it does.

Look in my sig for krakens.

Your idea included krakens though, and a much more detailed idea for such a creature already exists, in my sig.
The rest...Squids are squids. What do you want more, kalamari drops?
