Ok, so wanting to carve pumpkins is nothing new. wearing them is nothing new.
Yet what is new lately is Endermen not attacking you because of it. I think the product of carving could be more interesting.
You start out with the base pumpkin then you choose what face you want to carve into it.
Enderman, creeper, zombie and so on. It turns you passive to that particular mob. Perhaps even let you interact with them in a limited fashion.
Have a creeper pumpkin on, hand a creeper some gunpowder and it will start following you, or zombie pumpkin on and give a zombie some kind of meat and it will follow you and protect you.
XP could play a roll as well, the higher the lvl the better the carving you can make. so like lvl 1-5 you can only make the zombie, 6-10 you can now make the spider one also or something along those lines.
humm... nice idea, maybe people can make that a mod and if that gets popular then Notch may see it and add it to the game, like the flying mod or other mods that got really popular that Notch added those to the game
I think the only reason the pumpkin protects you from endermen is because they can't actually tell that you're staring at 'em. I don't quite see how it'd help with other mobs :x

Mobs in general are just dumb. Think of is as a spy mask.
And with this change Endermen would attack you with the pumpkin unless it had its face carved on it.
