A Fire Charge should be able to be used as a fuel in a furnace. It could go to, maybe, 100 seconds? (This would make it 3rd best fuel, only being topped by Blaze Rods and Lava Buckets) This could give them some use besides traps. Thanks for reading.
Cnsidering it burns for exactly 8 items, and furnaces can only hold up to one stack, it's the most effecient fuel, not wasting a single second on a stack of items.
I dont think we need more fuel. Besides fire charges are so hard to get even if they did burn as much as 32 coal to get to that stage you would already have so much coal.
Fire charges have half a blaze rod (1 blaze powder) and a coal in them. Add that together and you get 6+8 or 14. Now, the recipe makes 3. 14 divided by 3 is 4.66. Round it up to 5. Anything more and fire charges would be a tad bit over-powered. Especially since you can use charcoal which is incredibly easy to get with a tree farm and blaze rods can be easy to get with a good blaze farm.

This is a signature. There should be something here....
Oh wait! There is!
It's a game. it's not meant to be realistic. So you think that a suit of armor made of pure diamond is more realistic than having fire charges as fuel?

It's not the smartest or the most sensible thing to do if you're that filthy rich, but it's possible.
But tossing in a bundle of coal and gunpowder into a stove? Ehhhh....

You realize that you play a game with mushroom cows, floating blocks, zombies, giant spiders, skeleton archers, a giant dragon that rules it's own dimension, golden apples that heal you, wooden pickaxes that can actually break stone, and a hell world right?
Tossing gunpowder into a stove is bad? Try tossing the limb of a monster from hell into the furnace(blaze rod) and watch it cook pork. And eat it. lol. Gunpowder isn't much worse then eating something cooked from hell sticks. Ya never know if they could be lethal or not.

Mehhhh..... I guess so.
But I'm surprised punching wood isn't on that list
This sounds great at first, but when you think about it, two of the items you used to make this are already fuels! One of them is a blaze rod, which burns longer than what you suggested. With that in mind, you would be tempted to make it just a strait upgrade, but is it really needed? Even if it was more efficent, you need to craft it, which sacrifices time. Therefore, it would either be time or effiecency, and you'd have to choise. Do we want this? Mabye we do! It is ultimately for Mojang to decide, but I personally think they shouldn't bother.

It actually isn't. In order to smelt diamond into a mouldable form, the diamond has to be at an unrealistically high temprature, which isn't able to be reached.
Don't defend ideas with the "Minecraft is unrealistic!" argument. By that logic, dirt could be purple, sheep could transform into squid at night, and snow could be a fuel, all protected by that same argument. Realism is fine when it doesn't conflict with gameplay, it's not to be neglected and completely taken over by fantasy.

And if we go by that logic, then magical red dust mined deep underground can be used as an alternative to electricity. also, a block can stand in mid air, something that is really unrealistic.

Also not to mention we drink stale water made from shrooms from hell all the time.
