The real reason behind this suggestion is that there is simply too much content in Nether fortresses in comparison to the rest of it, so making Wither Skeletons spawn out of there would fix that, along with the skull issue.
Then put more, different content everywhere else, or at least increase the skull drop rate.
I think Wither Skulls should still be hard to get but I agree that all the features of the nether are basically in the fortress. Instead of having them everywhere in the nether I think it would be cool to have some type of structure that they would then spawn. ( :
Partial support
-> boost the spawn area to a small radius around the fort; it'll make building a wither mob farm more intuitive- without wreaking a lot of pre-existing nether builds.
Why?- a lot of the problem lies in the size of the current spawn area; limited to the exact shape and Y level of the nether forts themselves.
-> This means that there's almost no valid spawn points compared to the other nether mobs, which is why the spawn rate is so low.
(In turn this'll make finding a fort easier- you'll see the monsters before you'll see the fortress itself.)

I don't think, atmospherically speaking, it's a good idea to have Wither Skeleton spawning everywhere. Having it spawn in chunks + nearby chunks around the nether fortress would have a lot of sense. You start spotting skeleton? There's a nether fortress nearby. Think of nether fortress as a sort of pseudo biome in the nether.
As for the rest of nether, I would like to have more unique mobs there.

I'm sure I'm not the only one, but I've never actually fought the wither. It looks fun, but... Like stated, I don't have time to find 120 Wither Skeletons in the complex dungeon of the Nether Fortress. I hope that this is added to Minecraft

Support - but also an idea. Maybe the ones in Nether Fortresses would spawn with something that makes them unique and slightly stronger, like they have the iron sword and the ones outside of the Fortress have golden swords?
really all normal mobs are made so harmless when using mods of getting to diamond era so wither skelis wandering around the nether would make it far more fun aswell as making them have 20 hearts instead of 10 i already necro posted this and supported it but im going to say i support it again

A fantastic idea all around. On a side note, you should put your supporters list into a spoiler tag. It's a bit massive at the moment. o_o
