Arrows either shot by a player or via dispenser should trigger a button. This would allow more complex and fun creations!
Actually...
Arrows can be used to trigger pressure plates. You just need a particle source (burning netherrack is easiest, but rain also works)
"Pressure plates may be triggered in the following ways:
...
Arrows (wood pressure plates only):
A plate enabled with this method remains turned on until the arrow is recollected or despawns (this takes exactly one minute as of Alpha 1.2.4)
For arrows to trigger a wooden pressure plate there needs to be a secondary trigger which can be any particle effect:
Block destruction debris
Torch smoke
Furnace flames
Dispenser smoke
Fire smoke
Lava embers and more... "
