        Plantable pumpkins and melons, each with a central stem that grows to max size and spawns a fruit next to it.[43]

    New Food System:
        Food no longer heals directly but indirectly.[45]

Alright, and, I think you are a few years off.

Can someone host that wants to do this?;

Basically re-enact this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbZ510AUt3I&feature=related

And build a city inside of the crater ;D protection from all mobs, except for the back wall. I think it'd be fun for a survival map, as well as pretty unique for a city
