It can be extremely useful for getting down from high ledges, and even more so in the nether where you don't have the option of a bucket of water.
My exploring kit is generally sword, quarter stack of logs, food, pick, bow and arrows, and torches. Everything else can be made on the run. I never start with armour and just make it as I gather iron
I have a (in order) sword, pickaxe, shovel, food, torches, map, empty, empty, empty.
In my inventory I keep spare meat. Wooden planks (emergency crafting), cobblestone (for getting across things) and sometimes a compass or a bed if I am adventuring.

The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.
Hotbar's usually dirt/cobble, torches, sword, bow, watch/bucket, some pickaxes and then food. Inventory's usually more pickaxes and extra food, plus arrows for the bow, and maybe some extra torches and cobble. If I'm going to the Nether I pack much more cobble and pickaxes and skip the watch/bucket and dirt.

Don't like the terrain? Go build your own. You can totally do that in this game.

Never thought of using gravel that way. I'll probably try it.
If I can get them all: sword, bread, bow, 4 stone picks, 1 iron pick, a stack of cobblestone for the same reason the OP has gravel, a bucket of water, arrows, the armor I'm wearing, and anything else unimportant that I was too lazy to put away.

"Sometimes, I just wanna give up, say 'I'm done with this mess' and go to bed. But you know what; you can't shrug off your responsibilities. You got to pull yourself up and meet the challenges head on. That's the only way you're gonna get ahead in life."
I carry 1 bed, 64 dirt, 64 cobblestone, 7 pickaxe, 8-16 grilled steakes, 10 wood blocks, 3 buckets, and 256 torches. All easily replaceable, just in case something happens and i die and can't get back in time to regather my things.
My hotbar is:
Good pick, good shovel, good sword, torches, water bucket, bow, cobble, gravel or potion, and food. Inventory has more torches, arrows, a potion or two, a silk touch or fortune 3 pick, and whatever I have happened to come across while mining.
sword, bow, pick, shovel, torches, water bucket, cobble, food, compass
in my inventory ill have a crafting table, wood, extra tools (shears, flint and steel, etc.), arrows, and anything else i find on my journey.
I usually carry 2 or 3 of each tool minus a hoe, a stack of food, torches and gravel
bucket of water a compass and a bow/arrows and sword.
is this the norm for everyone?

Nothing in the inventory.
Exactly what Brendanan said.

I switch things out occasionally to make room for more stuff.
Sticks | Stack of wood |
Empty | Pick | Spade | Water
Sword | Pick | Spade | Axe | Dirt | Cobble | Empty | Meat | Torches
I think that's about it. Also equip myself with armor.
Inventory: Sticks (always upper right). Don't ask me why I carry sticks all the time. Couldn't tell you.
Inventory: I always carry Wooden planks, sticks, coal, arrows, extra tools, and a map.
If I had to pick 3 things only, then I would pick food, map, and sword. ^^

Mine is very close to this.

Also, arrows above the Bow in inventory, but other than that, empty!
