With the pending addition of pistons, we will obviously have some water control mechanisms now.
I would suggest water having some pressure when blocked, so that when released, it launches forward able to push objects in its path. There should be a maximum pressure (based on blocks of water capped, since water travels 8 blocks?) and a varying amount of water blocks launched (maybe again based on blocks of water capped?).
So if you had:
W=W=B.x.x.x.x.x
You would have a column of 5 water blocks shooting out. Pressure would probably have to build over time and dictate how far the water is launched...

Look at dwarf fortress. We need water like THAT.
