I have some ideas for additional uses for glowstone dust that i think should be added in a later version. They are:
1: you can put down glowstone dust like redstone and it will glow.
2: you can put it above ANY other item in a crafting grid to make that item glow.
3: Glowstone lanterns (i dont know if there are already lanterns planned for the next update or whenever, but glowstone lanterns woudl be brighter then regular ones and maybe leave a dim, temporary glow on surfaces that its light touches)
So, good ideas, do you think?

Endermen are epic! They help you in battle, and lead you to valuable crap in mines! If you click that link, you've done a good thing :3
I would certainly like lanterns for that whole "modern" look to my houses, and I guess they wouldn't get destroyed by water, either. Maybe they could even be hung from the ceiling.
Making any item glow seems pointless.
The dust trail thing...maybe. The light would have to be lower than glowstone blocks, though. And if it's too low then torches would be more useful, but if it's too high then it would make glowstone blocks obsolete.

actually 3 was already planed by notch but then then out before the initial release because they did not have tome it was suppose to light up the way you walk and they also talked about removing the infinite light from torches and making lanterns the infinite light source but in the end the lamp was made to bypass these ideas and placed as a quick fix as well.
