I see some possibility for this idea, but then again, I hardly keep up with the news in 1.9. But with some research, I can make out a good response.
The biggest problem I see is the homing attack. Homing arrows are indeed OP, as they cannot be dodged or avoided, and this, along with a potion that lifts you in the air, most likely leaving you vulnerable for a bit, is OP. Up until now, we don't really have much info on arrows, regarding if they will have potion-typed arrows (in my defence, though, those are pretty redundant, IMO).
Once again though, this arrow is quite OP compared to others.
Maybe make Shulkers drop 0-2? Make the recipe 4 scrap surrounding an arrow for just one arrow? With those changes it might balance out and allow a homing arrow. 4 damage when fully charged, but it freaking homes in on targets!
If those changes are made, support.

Watch out for the crabocalypse. Some say the day will never come. But it will.

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.
I imagine some kind of shulker drop could be used to make a levitation potion, and then you just tip and arrow with that. But a homing arrow does sounds really cool! But it needs to be less OP. How about when you fire it off it starts to slightly turn towards the nearest mob but only when charged? If that's how it worked I'd support, but for now, No Support
I have this idea by watch Minecraft 1.9 update(I have problem with minecraft launcher, i can't play minecraft)
and i think it'll be awesome to shoot some shulker bullet.
This is my idea
Shulker scrap
It drop from shulker (0-2) it use to craft Shulker Arrow and Levitation potion.
Shulker Arrow
use 2 arrows and 4 shulker scraps to make 2 shulker arrows i have 4 ideas to this item
1. 3-4 second Homeing attack
2. Levitation effect
3. both( nope )
4. 3-4 second Homeing attack( slow at homing and speedup )
Sorry if i write something wrong, I'm not good at english.
Change log
Shulker scrap
It drop from shulker (2-3) it use to craft Shulker Arrow.
Shulker Arrow

This would definately be OP, but I support this project
I would make it so that your recipe creates only one arrow, and have a 50% chance to miss.
I also believe they should be able to track invisible players, just to balance it out. Despite the nerfs, this should have a buff.
