Fishing Pole Trick Gives You Mob Eggs

[ForeverDanJ]

ForeverDanJ here,
I was wondering that instead of having an invisible cache of all the mobs you have collected with a fishing pole, we have the fishing pole give us the respective mob eggs. This would be interesting to see how farms and players would react, having all your pigs named "Mr. Piggles" or having your villagers named "Wilfred" or other funny names . I also want to bring up getting wolf eggs and ocelot eggs. If we can get those, that means that we can name our pets too, which in turn would be a lot of fun!
Hopefully you'll consider my opinion  !

Why has it been rejected? Just get a filter so you can't put in words that are filtered and then it would be pretty cool

I think this idea should still be implemented, with it players would have more freedom with mob eggs. And as Eggs they could be renamed without requiring another feature to be added. Perhaps add a vT cost to make them Eggs?

And add protection so you cant place them on others lots as of people being trolls and putting 100''s of pigs down

Spawn Eggs will not guarantee that you will get the the exact color sheep or villager you caught.

Sheep are very easily Dye-able. However villagers could cause a problem, at least with the current state of Minecraft.
