Bottle o' Enchanting

The Bottle o' Enchanting is an item added in weekly snapshot 12w04a. It appears to be a potion, but works very differently and cannot be brewed. It is only available via spawning in Creative mode.

The item itself gives off a glowing animation, much like normal Potions.

Even though it doesn't look like a Splash Potion, it works like one; as they are throwable and can be dispensed. On Impact, blue swirls sprites along with 1 to 3 Experience Orbs, containing 3 to 11 experience points total, will appear.

The Bottle o' Enchanting's main use would be to give experience without using server commands.

Throwing the Bottle o' Enchanting at a mob has no effect against the mob.

The Bottle o' Enchanting can also be used for player made dungeons by shooting them out of a dispenser as a reward for the player(s).

Trivia

 * Because you no longer need experience for enchanting in creative mode the only use for the Bottle o' Enchanting is for custom maps or as a reward in multiplayer.
 * It also shatters on contact with an activated nether portal.
 * Even being green, the Bottle o' Enchanting gives off blue sparks, and glows purple.
 * Throwing multiple on the ground while flying, then scattering many experience orbs, then zooming out into third-person and dropping to the ground will show that the player can absorb only a limited number of experience orbs at one time.

History
The bottle o' enchanting was a totally new concept in Minecraft, as it is not known who came up with the idea. Notch could have done it, or some random fan could have made big money. The idea is completely new. Of course people were trying to get xp on creative mode, but the BOE (bottle o' enchanting) is completely new.
