This would be a nice aesthetic thing but it'd make such a huge difference in lighting and building (the gui part would be brilliant in creative mode at least):
[1] Being able to customise the light range of a redstone lamp - for example, a GUI where you can set how much the redstone lamp lights up the surrounding area, being able to make it brighter or darker. To extend that thought: controlling the light level of lamps based how powerful the redstone connection is. That would be interesting in city builds: For example, connect to a night sensor, which will gradually get stronger as it turns night time. Then the lamp will gradually fade up.
[2] Being able to extend the light range further than usual - I'm building a race track and it is almost impossible to light nicely because the track has to be a certain minimum width. That means there is always a shadow in the middle of the track that looks horrible and being able to extend the light range of lamps would hopefully erase that shadow. Of course, there are other applications this could be useful for but that's my pet peeve when it comes to lighting; its very restrictive especially in creative mode.
Either that, or I'd love a spotlight where I can accurately control the direction it points in
