I think it's a good idea, it's gonna be useful, plus they may look cooler sometimes.
I partly disagree with the redstone part though and believe this improvement would make more sense:
Make it a matter of the power level of the redstone signal.
If it's low (say 1-6) it'd give you small electric shocks which make you go faster just to get out of the ladder:P
If it's high (7+) then the player receives damage and is forced to let go off the ladder (therefore fall to the ground) because of the more powerful shock.
Sorry but this would be completely pointless and would take more time for Mojang to create then it is worth. Sorry, but, No support.
Why do you think it would take Mojang lots of time to create this?
We have ladders, which are the essential part, we have redstone components for the redstone part, and we have soul sand which is used to decrease the speed of players, now we put them all together and voila!
I don't like the redstone part, but maybe if be slid across a surface by a piston to another piston while someone is holding shift on the ladder, they could serve a neat purpose, not for travel, maybe for forts if you see an intruder and want to burn them, or to decide if your going to the enchantment room or the brewery, but they would need sensor ladders with pressure plates in them.

Then why did they add things like clocks? Or Gold? Besides, earlier in the post (he/she may be wrong), someone said that it was already in the game, they just took it out because a solid transparent block was too hard then.
The main reason why i think that this is something i want, is because i would like some sort of ladder that you could climb faster than you could regular ladders, because they're so slow.
It's nice to have for asthetics, and it'd be useful to allow pushing ladders with pistons, but I'm not a fan of climbing faster because of a redstone signal. Burning your hands would make sense, but no faster climbing.
I don't know. It just bugs me a bit that the blocks behind are needed. Though it would be a cooler looking entrance to a secret fort in a mountain overhang or something....
I hate the current real life patch, I cannot climb straight up into the air on a ladder being only supported by two legs on the ground. Also when I attach a live electricity wire to the ladder, I do not climb faster.

If you want that, you can talk to phline, who made the mod

Give it a hitbox
Add a texture and crafting recipe
Boom. Done.
It's that easy (except if they decide to add the redstone and all of that)
Well that's why I have "(If Mojang wants to add it)"
I'll take it that you support. Thanks!
Anyways, 10/10 would bang!
Well it would have to be a solid block for it to be climbable
Its a solid ladder block, so it will be climbable, and if you power it with electrics/redstone you climb faster.
