The idea is to have structures made out of Bone Blocks in the Nether, similar to how you can find fossils underground in the Overworld.
Some of the Bones would look like the Fossils in the overworld but you could also find variants that look like oversized ribs protruding out of the ground. The Bones would be fairly commonly found, far more so than in the Overworld.
This would add to the Hellish Underworld aesthetic that the Nether has already and increase a player’s desire to go there (as a means of collecting a significant amount of bonemeal quickly). There could also be versions made out of Blocks of Coal instead of bone to represent the Wither Skeleton bones.
Edit: In a similar vein of adding structures to the Nether, Giant Nether Wart could also be found naturally. This would be made out of the existing Nether Wart Blocks found in the game.
No question about it, they REALLY need to update the nether! I like the bones idea, and they could be in alien formations to help look creepy! I think the nether should be full of more fortresses, lava ships, and more bosses.
Sounds awesome. Id like to see some nether trees as well, but with the property of not burning. The trees could have a deep red tint with a dark bark since the only nutrients in the nether would have to come from netherrack.
More Netherfortresses: -1.. some seeds tend to have quite a few netherfortress close together.. IF there were different structures like the netherboats (see below) , with maybe a Nether dock on edge of lava lake then it's a possibility
Lava Ships: unsure - if you mean similar to end ships but made of netherbricks, located in middle of large lava lake, with loot chests then +1.. if you mean the ability of using 'boats' on lava to move around then: -1
More bosses: Depends.. I'd would prefer more hostile mobs like a 'spectre' - a semi transparent mobs that 'float' around the nether, not restricted to netherfortresses though - maybe wandering around nether like pigmen, but will occasionally 'float' up ~4-5 block above ground & maybe even over the edges of lava pools - but not as high like ghasts

Trees in the Nether: -1
I think they were reffering to Ships similar to the End Ships or Ship Wrecks.
I agree that more Nether Fortresses would be a bad idea, it would be too samey and wouldn’t add anything we haven’t seen before. That would be like instead of adding corals and sea life to our oceans, we just added more Ocean Temples.
I have mixed opinions about trees. I don’t think specifically /trees/ would work in the Nether. However, tree-like structures could work well. The reason being that wood, even fire resistant wood, feels out of place in the Nether.
Although, giant Nether Wart Mushrooms might work. (grown with 2x2 Nether Wart as the plant has a relatively bulky stem in-game). I would also like to see other plants, namely the Wither Rose that is coming in the next update, spawn naturally in the Nether.

Anyways bones in the nether sound awesome.
