A few improvement ideas:
1. Durability. A bit like the anvil.
2. Wood tools take long to mine the blocks, and can only mine the stuff that wood tools can actually mine, Stone a bit shorter break time and more blocks to break, etc..
3. I think you ment this, but you can have any tool material combinations, they will just break the blocks they are supposed to break with the correct speed.
Actually, why not just make dispensers break/place blocks when they have a tool in them. WAY simpler. They can easily add the durability loss for that (like flint&steel in the new snapshot).
1. Yep. Durablity would be durablity of the pickaxe * durablity of the shovel * durablity of the axe / 3 (average).
2. Yes, I did write that, but I'm neutral on the time taken thing (herein T3)
3. Uhh.. I didn't understand that bit.
4. Dispensers are supposed to dispense things, not mine them. Again I'm neutral on the dispenser not chopper thing. (herin DnCt)
It has already been said by the developers that they are never going to add in block breakers or placers.
They believe that only the player should place or break blocks. Sorry to disappoint you.

Endermen place blocks
Silverfish break blocks
Creepers and Ghasts blast blocks
Zombies break doors
Withers eat and blast blocks
Enderdragons destroy non-End blocks
What does it do?
It is very much like the piston, but instead of pushing blocks, it mines them and gives you the resource.
How do you craft it?
Just like the piston, except that the top wood are replaced with one shovel of any type, one pickaxe of any type and one axe of any type.
Note: The type of the pickaxe does matter. Wood Choppers will not mine obsidian.
Edit: Forgot one main thing: It's powered by redstone!
