It’s a long time to wait, but Mojang is certainly taking its time developing and refining the large amount of content that will be added. The new blocks, including Mud, Mud Bricks, and the various Skulk blocks, will have some incredibly interesting uses. For instance, since Skulk can store XP, there's an opportunity to make some truly huge XP farms.

But beyond just blocks, the update is set to add the aforementioned Warden, Frogs, Fireflies, and the Minecraft Mob Vote Winner, The Allay. The Allay picks up dropped items in loaded chunks and brings them to note blocks. This is an interesting mob because it has the potential to be used in item sorters and many other contraptions. So while the release seems like a long way away, it should be worth the wait with all the interesting new features that will be added!
