Sometimes you don't even have to sneak. If a mob is two or more blocks vertically away from you it won't detect you. I've noticed this recently. Its pathfinding won't search you out unless you are within one vertical block of the mob.

Well mobs that can detect sneaking would be: creepers, endermen, enderdragon, ghast, spiders, cave spiders and maybe slimes and magma cubes.
However, if a mob looks at you while sneaking it will still attack you so a potion of stealth/invisiblty could help you if you wanna make sure they dont (passive mobs don't care if you sneak but iron golems will and villagers will watch you sneaking up on ocelots is also possible makeing it easyier to convert into a cat)
endermen can still find you even if you drink a potion of stealth of invisiblty (players can also see you but you will be see though to them)
mobs cannot look at you if it's pitch black so sneaking could come in handy then if you fall into a deep hole with no way out and no torches. (even better when you stack it with night vision potions)
sneaking also could allow you to open doors, trap doors and push buttions and pull levers and step on pressure plates sliently but you still activeate pressure plates even in sneaking it just doesn't make a noise so you could make a silent alarm that way.
another possible feature would be if you sneak and attack something and the mob in question did not see you, you deal extra damage.
if thin ice/ walk over a floor and it breaks type of block, sneaking could get over it without it breaking.
I think that's what it'd be good for.
So you're thinking that only the undead (skeletons and zombies) can be snuck up on?
+1.
Cats.

I've noticed this too.
I'm not feeling it... But it would be a great way to get between half gaps (a door next to a fence).
Good. I guess I'm not going crazy after all. XD
