Sponge Mod on Creative?

As a lot of you most likely know, sponges have the ability to soak up water when using a mod. I, along with a lot of other people think that this would be a nice addition to the creative, and make building a lot easier.
Edit:
This is currently being looked into and if there isn't a plugin that can give us the result without a large amount of lag it won't be carried out due to the toll it would take on the server

I vote yes. For two reasons.
1. It will help clean up land a lot. For those who don't move around much in Creative, water is EVERYWHERE. People will just place it for the hell of it.
2. I can think of multiple buildings I would want to use this for. I wonder if they work with pistons. ^^

I think that's be a pretty good addition, and could be very useful.
I voted Yes.

Wait is this a plugin or a mod? Something like that seems like it wont be a client side mod that works in MP.

Hell yeah, seeing what an enourmous amount they have to fill in for
BetterAqua now, and for future projects concerning the vast oceans of the map.
I say YES!!

It would be cool if there was a finite water plugin! That mod is so freaking cool, and i could make so many different things with it~!

So.. instead of notch's code only checking 4 blocks every time water flows.. the plugin checks (for a 5-block radius) 1,331 blocks.. for a single sponge block, and prevents the water from flowing.
Now we imagine someone making a waterfall (a large one, 64 blocks tall), and makes a wall of water.
on Every tick for every new block of flowing water, 1,331 blocks are checked for a sponge..
Anyone see the problem?
