Minecraft Redstone Idea

One problem with redstone for me has always been not being able to but it on walls and cielings. yes, i know it is a dust, but that weakness of redstone is a massive pain in the butt.

My idea is simple, and gives an almost useless object a point. Slime. My idea could go one of two ways

Either... Or... I prefer the second option because it could be used with other redstone components, such as repeaters. Hopefully someone will take this thought into consideration.
 * Place the redstone dust and slime into a workbench and you will get sticky redstone. This substance can then be stuck to cielings or walls. The recipe
 * Place the slime on the cieling or wall, and then place the redstone dust.
