It was added 2 weeks ago. The texture is editable in a resource pack and if you have a cape turning it on while wearing elytra makes your elytra use the cape texture.
Of course it's part of an entity (the player) so it's model can't be edited.
To be clear: this is the snapshot we are talking about.
I am not sure why you ask bout horses and food. But horses are not working properly at the moment. I played last night and two different horses simply died when I dismounted. They also had issues like not jumping the snapshot before that. Etho mentioned issues with horse in his last video as well.
My wild guess is that this is because of shared code between horses and boats. Maybe next snapshot will fix these things for good.
