I did a brief search and didn't see it but I thought flags would be an interesting addition if done right. Perhaps a customizable texture much like the Steve texture map. People could design their own and upload it. When a person plants a flag it is linked to that player. You could create capture the flag games by making them pickable. You could place them at the tops of castle towers to signify clans and whatnot. Mostly it is just another way of customizing and personalizing Minecraft.

This would kinda be a good idea for CTF and marking........ things..... however, how would other people see your flag designs? would they be downloaded from some place? Or would you make them online in a central hub for them? Either way, it'd be nice to see some new decoration...

I would think the easiest way (for players) to handle it would be basically the same way you customize your character texture. Of course this would require Mojang to host it the same way on minecraft.net under your account settings. May be more than they are willing to commit to at this time.
Personally, whenever I can personalize something in the games I play it adds a certain something to that game that creates more of an attachment or meaning to it.
The idea came from looking at some people's castle designs online and seeing some of them with a shield crest on the gates. I thought it looked kinda cool even though it was made up of giant blocks. It added something to the whole design. But when I went to try it on my own castle it kind of looked like poop since I hadn't planned my castle with this in mind I just didn't have the space for it.
So the idea of custom flags popped in my head. Crests or hanging banners would be cool too. But I'd be happy with flags. Even if they are just different colors depending on the dyes used. That way Mojang wouldn't have to host anything as far as image maps. Just add the item to the game.
Just a quick thought.

Retired StaffI'd be okay with that. =)
Either way, it would be an excellent decorative addition. Support.
