Okay, so my idea is quite a simple one. A new redstone block (Similar to the Repeater and Comparator) that, depending on signal strength, would output a signal from a certain side. The recipe would look like this.
If it was receiving 0 strength input, there would be no signal out of any side. If there was a strength of 1-5 it would output it to the left, 6-10 to the front and 11-15 to the right. It would also have a repeater functionality, both extending the signal and allowing you to delay the signal by right clicking.
I think this would be very useful for the more advanced redstone contraptions and would also have some applications in sending 3 signals on 1 redstone line. Any suggestions on this?
I sort of understand it... But no, I don't (Redstone noob here). Eh, I support. As long as it keeps those redstone engineers happy.

To all of you people who think Notch is still working on the game, he stopped working on Minecraft in late 2011. Get your facts straight and stop spamming his twitter about Minecraft updates.
I personally would rather you be able to change the 3 outputs by right clicking rather than a delay. I can think of many contraptions where I would need specific signal strength outputs going in other directions where I wouldn't just be able to put it on the other side.

It appears to just be another Comparator. Seems unneeded.
No, they are different in the way they work. They work in a similar fashion, but do quite different things. See the Comparator compares signals from Input A and Input B, and if A is Larger than B (Or vice versa, not sure.) it will output a signal from the front.
This block takes an input from the back and will change it's output side depending on the power of the signal it receives. It could be used for lots of complicated things.

I see now, maybe I didn't read the OP right, full support.

That Idea works!
