I know. "Jukeboxes? I know that there are issues with the game, but of all things, you pick jukeboxes?"
I get it. Hear me out, because this is a pretty small idea I had.
We all know how jukeboxes work. You plop in the music disk, you listen while you work.
The problem (well, more of a minor quibble I've got) is that after a certain distance, you can't hear the music anymore, and given the size of some fairly average Minecraft bases this becomes apparent rather quickly.
So, I propose a relatively simple idea, that would also give the note blocks some love:
Make an active jukebox (one that is currently playing music) output a redstone signal, similarly to a torch.
Then, by connecting a note block to the jukebox via redstone wire/repeaters, that note block effectively becomes an extension of the original jukebox. They would play music in exact sync, and once you pluck the disk from the jukebox, the note block stops playing music.
This would have two effects, from what I can see. First, people could implement base-wide stereo soundsystems, and give their jukeboxes some use, and it would also open up some cool possibilities for redstone contraptions, activated by a music disk. The immediate possibility I think of is relatively easy fireworks displays set to sync up with a music track.
I'm unsure how redstone delay would play into the whole note block network idea, but at the very least, I think the jukebox redstone signal could be seriously cool, and easy to code in.
Hmm... I support. Although it's still a plank of wood, it can be whittled and shaved into a beautiful piece of art. Maybe add a few pics to help with the explanation, and go into depth a bit.

I don't think a picture would help much here. It's also a fairly shallow suggestion, which is why I think it would be relatively simple to code.

Supported.
Oh, supported.
