As far as I can tell, in /indev/, Sheep and Pigs don't spawn in the dark. They might if you have torches around, but in the darkness on Peaceful, there's just nothing. So, I have a little proposal.
Nocturnal animals, which spawn in at night like Monsters, but aren't harmful. The first thing that came to mind was a different variety of spider, which could move around at night and seek darkness during the day. During the night, it would move around and apply "web" to blocks, making them slow you down like water, but if you hit the web, you can collect it - And then combine it into cloth or such. This monster (and other harmless nocturnal monsters maybe) could still spawn on peaceful, but would also add to the experience on other difficulties - Creating areas that are dangerous to go into, thanks to the webbing slowing you down! Maybe even have these spiders capable of killing the sheep and pigs that wander into it's web, to create an ecosystem of sorts. Pathing could be added to the Sheep and Pigs to make them wander towards light sources at night, to avoid the spiders.
In another thread I sugested a mole-like creature that would essenttially the oppisite of a spider. By this I mean that it would be friendly in darkness, and aggressive in light. This would give some challenge to torches, but I don't know how people would like it until claiming-flags are available

I like this idea. It would attract animals to your torches and stuff at night time.
