I think it would be kinda cool to add sheaths, when you are sneaking and right click with a sword it puts in a sheath and you can see it on your back, and sneak and right click with nothing in your hand to unsheath
I would enjoy that. Lewis from the Yogscast has a sword on his back as part of his skin.
Alternatively, I could see it this way: anything in your first (number 1) hotbar slot appears on your back when you have a different hotbar slot active. I tend to keep my sword in slot 1, so that would do it for me.

I think you are going to love my Survival Let's Play series on YouTube! It's called Spaceboot1's Garden. I make pretty things.

I would much rather prefer something like this, but with a way to pick any slot you want.

For roleplaying purposes I certainly wouldn't mind the ability to sheathe our swords, although instead of being displayed on your back, I'd rather have the blade sheathed at the hip. Not unlike in this picture (the left side of the picture):

Well I sometimes refer to my hotbar as my "utility belt". I can imagine multiple numbered slots rendering items on your avatar.
1 = back
2 = hanging from left belt
3 = hanging from right belt
After that it might get crowded, and also you need "concealed" slots for when you're trying to be sneaky and invisible. (If items in slots 1, 2, and 3 would render even if the wearer is invisible)
