Right now your statistics page shows ALL your Minecraft user data, from all the games you've played combined.
What if books served as a statistics page, displaying the same information, but only reporting what you've done in the current game?
You'd right click while holding a book and see a screen showing how many days it's been since you first spawned, "Day 1394", how many times you've died, how many of each block you've mined, etc.
In multiplayer it might have to show a reduced list of data, not displaying anything player specific but just general server facts like how many days old the map is, etc.
This should be added!
It doesn't matter if we can't write on books, I want this!~
And maybe on SMP, we could all lend each other's books and see the other's stats!

I'd like to be able to write in books too.
But perhaps there's some kind of problem with allowing an unlimited amount of different portable texts. This would have all books access the same small pool of information, meaning that there's a strict limit on how much data would need to be store. So this should be easier to add.
If they ever do add writing in books then this can have a different recipe or requiring crafting a book with something. In the meantime though it would make books something other than just a crafting ingredient.

Please do! I'm not on twitter.
