An item I'd like to see which I think would be fun to use would be a flare? Imagine coming across a mineshaft, you could light up a flare and throw it down, it could function as a temporary light source at the bottom for 15 seconds or so... enough to get down, and quickly analyse your surroundings, including any mobs that may be lurking.
Same could go with a cave. You could be exploring through a network of caves that opens up into a big chamber. Normally you could place a torch where you are and it will light a bit of it up, but imagine throwing a flare into the middle and seeing the whole area light up temporarily.
