Wel, that's nice. Should help to liven things up a little, especially since you could make a plaid ceiling or something like that.
I would like to mention that it's not really a leak when the lead developer releases teaser images.
This is all well and good, but how about fixing the caves first? Caves are a HUGE part of MC... Yeah we can go strip mining, which didn't take mlong to get 2 stacks of iron and about 5 stacks of coal. But I still like to see my caves! Though I did run into a mineshaft on the snapshop. Was kind of surprising.
Caves are fine, really, you're just getting unlucky. If you were to check with an x-ray texture pack or mod, you would see that caves are still very prevalent. In any case, caves are a rather rare feature IRL, so you're already getting a TON if there's even just one cave in every square kilometer of the entire world, and you have much, much more.

I've used it, and searched for hours in flying mode looking for caves... Never found one, not even a SMALL one. So... if they are going to be that rare just take them out completely. You are going to have people complain either way you go. However if you kept it how it was, or even maybe a little bit more rare. You may not get so many complaints. I'm not saying I'd like there to be 5 caves within 200 blocks of each other. I'm just saying it should not be as rare as it seems to be. I spent 2-4 hours in fly mode using x-ray and STILL didn't find a cave... thats WAY too rare.
And yet another feature ripped from mod. Really Jeb_, invent something yourself!
Actually I'm fine with him copying from mods, means I don't have to go and download them and "install" them. I'd rather it just be in the game by default.

Even if all Jeb did was take the "best of..." features from the modding community, that would be a heck of a lot of work. There are far more modders and "fans" with cool ideas than there are employees at Mojang, and there are some awfully good mods which are "out there".
Besides, if Jeb does get a creative streak, he certainly can add stuff into the game. On top of that, Mojang has shown that they are willing to give proper credit to the modding community when something of this nature is taken and put into the game.

There's not much brainpower involved in visualizing a stair turned upsidedown. There's nothing original in whatever mod you claim to be original. Ever seen "The Labyrinth", or related?

What, is Steve? going to grow four hands and an extra head next? It's a core part of the game- mods are for that, not vanilla updates.

When is the final 1.2 going to be released?
I've been thinking hard on upside down stairs and how it would make things prettier...
oh well

I fail to see the problem here.

I don't blame Jeb for not doing these fixes this week, he was occupied with Mojam and Lego World, lol.
This will mean thousands of new building techniques!
