I was wondering whether adding a grass layer to a mob trap for spawning friendly mobs would be a good idea. It would HAVE to be over water and a full 144x144 clear area though, otherwise you might get them spawning way far off...

I made an upper layer above my mob trap made of dirt, and I hacked in some grass, and put a bunch of torches all over it, so friendly mobs fall off into the canals below, and friendly and hostile mobs all get ground down. I have it made where the friendly mob layer has a bunch of 6 x 7 sections where the edges are in line with the canals below.( I hope that makes sense) It works great. I think I have the max friendly mobs spawning at any given time. Its high enough above where the light level doesnt affect the hostile mob spawning. I wish I could collect wool from my grinder, though.
I should mention that my mob grinder is below ground.
