I got this idea in Visual arts today when talking to a friend its a really quick and undetailed Idea but seems like fun so - Floating Islands seemingly picked right up out of the ground with a dark crater underneath I'm talking about an Island far up in that sky so it will be a little difficult to get there. Not just little Islands either I mean the size of a mushroom biome maybe. This is so they cast a awesome shadow "awesome" meaning big. In this shadow monsters could spawn and like on the floating Island there could be rewards, maybe a boss - wonder what lifted that land? Two bosses would be too much by far so I thought just one if any, the one responsible for the floating island. I know this idea kinda jumps away from Minecraft but maybe something here could spark a good Idea.
I'd recommend downloading MCEdit, learning how to use and how to go about the best possible floating islands, and then craft this type of biome yourself. Then you're going to have to go in depth with new types of things found within this biome, mobs, potential resources, new blocks in general.
While floating islands of the current terrain are swell, an independent and unique biome is much greater...go in depth, go the extra mile, then come back to the concept upon the forums and present it.
Really good idea, but I agree with TenebraeAeternae, you need to go into more detail. This does have a possibility to be awesome. When you have the full idea, I'll probably support it.
Thanks <3 for the comments but I think my say holds little water :/ with info or not this is going to be one of if not the last idea I post, probably my last. The detail in my Goat mob suggestion didn't help. I'm going to just ride on off wherever Minecraft's progress takes me, might be more fun that way, with the surprises and stuff.

Dinnerbone was experimenting with world generation, and he created a floating islands-type world generator. However, it takes lots or RAM for it to generate. Although this feature will not be added anytime soon, Notch said to save it in case they decided to add it. If/when they do add the generator, it will probably be a seperate world type.
If you want a floating island-type world generator,Better World Generation IV will probably best suit you. It add many more world types, including the sky dimension, which is what you may be looking for.

I really hope that's sarcasm.
