There's probably been previous posts about this topic that i'm not aware of...
It would be cool if when you held torches, they gave off light as you walked around, so you could walk around with a torch (or lantern?), lighting up areas as you walk there.
This would be useful to explore small caves (that you only need to visit once) without planting/wasting torches everywhere.
This would also be more realistic and greatly improve the way we explore Minecraft whether it be looking for minerals in caves/tunnels or hunting monsters during the night.
Now i'm sure this might not be possible with the Minecraft engine or be too difficult to implement, but it's just a suggestion, and will probably remain that way.

mod isn't updated yet it seems.
If mods can do it, why can't he?
Your guess is as good as mine, maybe because he's not aware of his limitations as a coder?
