Right now there aren't very many redstone mechanisms. Right now there is only iron doors, powered rails, dispensers, sticky/pistons, and note blocks. There could also be more redstone triggers. And ever get tired of wasting tons of space just to make a XOR gate or a blinker? If these were implemented, redstone could be much more fun than it already is.
I'll just start with some of the popular ideas out there.
Machines
Igniter: A redstone machine the makes the top catch on fire while powered.
Iron Trap Door: A trap door that is only triggered by redstone.
Vacuum: A block that sucks up nearby items while powered. Only has 9 storage slots.
Fan: A block that pushes all entities away that are 1-5 blocks in front of it while powered.
Jump Pad: Power it and just go on top of it. It'll fling you 5 blocks high into the air. Works with other entities as well.
Triggers
Redstone Chest: A chest that triggers a redstone circuit while opened. Good for traps.
Redstone Furnace: Can use redstone as fuel to activate redstone circuits. Used for timed circuits, the redstone farnace also lets a circuit travel 30 blocks rather than 15.
Light Sensor: Right click it to set which light levels activate it/redstone.
Motion Sensor: Mobs/players that walk near it will set it off.
Redstone Utilities:
Blinker: Like the repeater expect rather than delaying circuits, makes them flash. Has 4 settings, the higher the setting, the slower it blinks.
Redstone Gates:
Rather than making huge logic gates, just craft one that is only the size of a redstone repeater! Includes: NOT, OR, NOR, AND, NAND, XOR, XNOR
A couple of these already have mods, such as the motion sensor and jump pad.

NO. Don't click New Thread. Read the rules. I don't give a damn how long or boring they are. If you do not, you will be subject to massive flaming and criticism by yours truly.
I'm a fan of the igniter, iron trap door, and jump pad. I'm not so sure about the others, but here is my idea:
It basically acts like a torch, but allows the current to blink. This would be useful considering there isn't a real way to make on/off switches for note block things if you want a loop. Basically, the side current (the dotted line) switches the gate in the middle on/off. If it's turned on, the current is allowed to from the one end to the other. If the current is off it won't be able to pass, creating an option for an off button.
The things you came up with are useful only for traps and computers for the most part, no offense. I just don't really see much use in daily Minecraft needs.
