I had two simple and humble ideas for crafting.
The first is a mining helmet.

IXI

Where I = Iron, T = Torch, and X = empty. What this would do is give you an helmet to be equipped which would give 0 armor, but make the player a level 7 to 9 light source. I don't really know if this is even possible with the way light is done in the game, but it would sure be a convenient toy. Maybe gold instead of iron just to make it more expensive for the purposes of 'balance?'
The second is simply tools made of obsidian, which would have the mining speed and properties of stone, but be indestructible. It makes sense to me, since obsidian is so sturdy when trying to harvest it, but it's more closely related to stone than to metal or jewels (diamonds). I suppose not many folk would actually use them because stone mines "so slowly", so there might not be much reason to bother with it, and maybe notch is completely opposed to the idea of indestructible harvesting tools.
Just a couple thoughts I had while playing, thought I'd share. Back to the proverbial 'salt mine'!

I still want these. =-/ Extendable redstone conduction could be soooooooo useful! Climbing: for great mobility.
We deserve better rivers.
There is a little thing I want to point to you. It's called the rules. Please read them before posting.
I lost all faith in this thread when I saw you wrote that you wanted both mining helmets (suggested so many times before), and obsidian tools (suggested so many times before, is a horrible idea, and suggesting it means you lose all creditability int he future). Suggesting 2 un-releated things is also called a wishlist.

I am the bone of my sword
Steel is my body, and fire is my blood
I have created over a thousand blades
Unknown to death, Nor known to life
Have withstood pain to create many weapons
Yet, those hands will never hold anything
So as I pray, Unlimited Blade Works
Both have been suggested before, I don't know if the mining helmet is possible with the new lighting engine or not, we'll just have to see. The obsidian tools are too over powered, I love how fast stone pickaxes mine, it's not too slow or too fast, it's great. Making these indestructable would be way too over powered, any tool that can't break is over powered.

Yes, I had to keep Twilight Sparkle. c:
