Yeah thats good enough lets get on with it. Most of us minecrafters live in homes with fences around them, like me, right? But they are forced to have big fat doors on the fences so they can get in a and out. They are ugly with our beautiful fences.
So i came up with a TINY little idea. Not too big, just a tiny idea... Gates.
Yeah yeah, a crapload of people have already suggested this but does it look like i care? I come with a solution.
Same code for door and same code for fence, but mixxed.
Recipe:
[] []
It would act just like a door. But it would be 1.5 blocks tall, and would look like depicted in the crafting recipe
[] []
No spaces between the planks like in normal fences. Its basically a door with a little blip on top in middle, besides on the sides.
So it would cost 2 fence blocks and 1 door to make a fence gate, but I'll bet you anything that people would be paying diamonds just to get a nice-looking fence gate, because these doors are just ridiculous.
This would look like several fence posts stuck together. Just the posts, glued next to each other, spanning 1 block wide, 1 block high, and 1/4 of a block thick. They would open just like doors (or halfdoors), but would connect to fences on either side of said fence gate. Would be placed just like normal doors. Would be 1.5 blocks high, just like the other fences, so that nothing can get in.
If every suggestion was to be put in the vanilla game, rather than made as mods, the game would be so cluttered, a new player would feel lost before all the possibilities and menus and stuff he can do. Especially since there's no real tutorial (aside from those silly achievements).
That is why mods are created. Also, because Notch and Co. don't have the time to do everything on their own.
If you absolutely want something in your minecraft game, but know that it's nowhere near about to be added, try looking for a mod that does what you want. If there is one, download and install it, if there isn't, then copy/paste your suggestion over to the "Requests and Ideas for mods" Forum. We don't want none of them here.

I agree, but just because there's a mod for something doesn't make an individual suggestion less valid.
you could also try being creative. I made my fence with a door, and it still looks fine.

I placed it like this.

It still looks odd though. Doors need hinges to open/close. If there's a wall next to it, it makes sense, if there's nothing, it's very suspicious how that door is even holding up on its own, even more so when you're punching at it.
A gate for a fence is an obvious addition and something that is needed to make fencing "complete". I think the design is simple. One post on the side, and 2 fence beams connected at the end with a vertical piece that swing out like a door. Put two together, and like doors, the side with the hinge is on the outside for both.

Does that matter? NO.
