So you see amazing ship creations all over the place. I bet you think to yourself "Man, I wish I could actually command that ship." I know that's what I have always thought. Well, consider this idea.
A new item would be implemented called a steering wheel or something along those lines. It would be crafted like this:
Now when you place the steering wheel on some blocks that are in the water, the structure will move under your command. There would be limitations on how many blocks you could place and what kinds of blocks you could place. The ships could only be made out of wood items and wool, with some few exceptions. This would be perfect for crossing large oceans on servers or to explore your single player world. You could use them as cargo ships or as war ships. What do you guys think?
While it sounds neat, I'm not sure you understand the difference between a block and an entity. The movement itself wouldn't really work, the blocks would need to be converted into an entity to be able to move. I'm no coder, but but I'm not sure how possible that would be.

Well if you have ever played tekkit, they have something kind of like this called an airship controller and basically does the same thing.
I have not played tekkit, nor will I. As I understand, it is HEAVILY modified, so while this is possible, I see it being much more work than it's worth. But again, as I said, still a very cool idea.
