I think you should be able to throw a snowball across a dark chasm to a button that triggers a piston bridge to protract out of the wall.
Players can take care of most of this machinery, but the bit that's missing is the button's functionality.
And if you're feeling especially generous, Mojang coder who is reading this forum post during your lunch hour: how about also making levers work this way too. Or for more obscure fun, have buttons activated only by snowballs, eggs, and arrows, while levers are activated by fishing lines.

I think you are going to love my Survival Let's Play series on YouTube! It's called Spaceboot1's Garden. I make pretty things.
I fully agree that we need a trigger for arrows, snowballs, eggs . It would help a lot for making lot of traps, hidden doors and other stuff for adventure maps.

"Shall I craft you a ladder to help you off that high horse now?"
So you know how wooden pressure pads are triggered by items?
How about same crafting recipe for a button, with two wood on top of it.
It'd look like a wood plated button.
