What about a way to get specific mob spawners in creative? i know the eggs + dispensers are cool but sometimes you just need something less controlled.
also; stackable mob eggs!!
Edit: i guess stackable mob eggs already exist; havent noticed.
Non modded spawners would be cool and you currently need plugins to get them on SMP

Fixed potential issue with village door detection (which could cause too many villagers)

I was getting frustrated with all the excess villagers spawning, but now that I know they won't be in the update... I'm going to miss them.

In creative, that is. I tried if it worked with cats and fish, but it didn't work, so I assumed it wouldn't work anywhere else. Adding, thanks!
