Currently, 'The End' is a bit lacking in results. You build up, seek out a stronghold, make your way there, fight the Enderdragon - and then nothing changes. You get a text scroll of dubious merit, and then you're back to normal with nothing to show for it. You don't even keep the XP unless you brought in an enchanting table and used it there.
So, I'm proposing to make a change in the world, and one that will be worth noticing. Once you defeat the Ender Dragon, then either:
1) The Endermen are gone.
2) The Endermen are now afraid. Instead of attacking when you make eye contact, they teleport away.
Either one could be interesting.
Obviously, this makes getting Ender Pearls more difficult, which brings me to the second part - the Ender Egg. This is simply the egg that drops from the Ender Dragon, made collectible. Its purpose is simply to be used in a recipe that creates Ender Pearls from some common substance (coal maybe, or eggs, or snowballs). Like the buckets in a cake recipe, it's not consumed.
Would this be too powerful? I don't think so. By the time you have the Ender Egg, you've faced every challenge the game has to offer, at least combat-wise. And even with unlimited Ender Pearls, the damage taken means you can't exactly spam them. But regardless, the recipe could easily be adjusted for greater difficulty - make it consume clay balls, or magma cream, or even diamonds (should definitely give more than one pearl in that case).
I think this would be an useful and cool use for the egg, without huge changes required.

Both of these kind of makes it impossible to get new pearls to find new strongholds.

Retired StaffI kind of understood it as, the egg is consumed to make only a couple of pearls.
