If custom spawners are possible, I would submit that it might be a good one-shot top voter prize to consider, provided it wasn't spawning any mob that was too game-breaking or couldn't be had any other way.
Like, for example, I definitely wouldn't want to see a wither or ghast spawner. That'd just bork the hell out of everything. But it's already possible for anyone to build a high-yield iron or gold farm, or even just a large cow farm; but all of those are complicated, time-consuming and space-eating propositions. A pigman, iron golem or cow spawner wouldn't allow the player to do anything they can't currently accomplish; it would just be a really helpful, time and space-saving shortcut (and in the case of the gold farm, might allow for building it on the main server world? Since you wouldn't have all those lag-generating nether portals?)
