Why and how? The fireworks are a small item that is held by hand, not a large rocket.
Well by that logic it shouldn't have been implemented in the latest snapshot at all. But since it was, this seems like an amusing visual effect to go with it.

Yes. This would be hilarious. And indeed not that difficult. If a player is flying (which the game can obviously test for) and holding a firework, a firework model would render on their back, or in my opinion, under their wings. The boost particles would instead come out of the rocket instead of the player's feet.

The Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird would be able to cross the entire Minecraft world in just shy of 17 hours.
Well there isn't any reason it can't have a special model for this scenario. Takes a little extra work but certainly possible.

This is just one of those 'What the hell why not' kinda things, and I absolutely love it, I'm just imagining a rocket strapped to a player, or their elytra, farting out particles as we fly at crazy fast speeds.
Please, I need this in my life, Full Support.

Brewers poem;
Glowstone makes it stronger,
Redstone makes it longer
Yes that poem is very easy to mess up.
Yeah, I support stuff. Although most of this is between 'would enjoy in game' to 'holy jeez meh needyz!'
All of that above, and (not to mention) a firework that size couldn't launch you as far as they do. A firework on the back that big could definitely push you through the air.

Watch out for the crabocalypse. Some say the day will never come. But it will.
Feel free to drop by for a chat whenever.
If you'd like to talk with me about other games, here are a few I play.
Team Fortress 2
Borderlands series (Borderlands 2 is my favorite game, ever. TPS combat is a lot of fun and makes up for the lower-quality story, in my opinion)
Elder Scrolls series
Warframe (IGN is something like That_One_Flesh_Atronach)
Pokémon series (HGSS forever)
Rocket League
Fallout series
Left 4 Dead 2 (Boomer files always corrupt though)
SUPERHOT (SUPERHOT is the most innovative shooter I've played in years!)
Dead Rising series (Dead Rising 2 is one of my favorite games, and the 3rd was a lot of fun. 1st has poor survivor AI and the 4th is bad)
Just Cause series
Come to think of it, I mainly play fighting-based games.
(random picture grabbed from google images)
the boost should also be possible to activate from anywhere in the inventory by hitting spacebar while in mid air with the elytra for convenience.
that is all. great update, boys.

i thought the elytra was used to land safely on ground and not boost it's power with a firework?
why? because it would look awesome, and holding the rocket in hand for the boost looks kindof dumb.
how? should actually not be that difficult on the technical side.
if youre asking for realism, then how is cobblestone able to levitate mid air?
the elytra is for flight. plus, people have found a way around the decaying movement from the start.
you either have to gain speed at the right angle, and can basically fly unlimited, or youre pelting yourself with knockback arrows during flight.
now they just officially added the ability people were always using, in form of firework rocktet boosts. might aswell make it look really awesome.

If only firework rockets were big enough.

Full support.
Got no particular reason, I just think it would look awesome.
I support this.
It would look amazing while activated.

Because of all the support, IStonel (or anyone really), you should post this idea on the official Minecraft suggestions subreddit.

You should also link back to this forum post to demonstrate the support this is getting.
