Suggestion New Farmer Skill

Recently, an hourly butcher was added to Herocraft, as you probably know. It only affects hostile mobs. However, sometimes the staff run a real butcher that kills everything. Passive animals die, yes, but also Villagers, which can be quite hard to come by.

Thus, I suggest a new skill for Farmers called Stasis (or something along the lines of that). For a certain reagent, a Farmer could perform this skill on any non-hostile mob. It would remove the mob and return a message such as "You have stored a [mob name]!". The server would store the species, type, damage, and all other information about the mob. Upon use of the skill again, that exact same mob would appear with a message such as "You have released a [mob name]!". This skill would be primarily for use with Villagers, as Farmers can spawn just about any other mob. However, if a Farmer had a favorite pig or something, it could work there too :)

Mostly, this would allow people to have at least one Villager survive the all-species mob wipes. Villager eggs are fairly hard to obtain to my knowledge, and all of the villages on the map are cleaned out.

Detailed Skill Description:
Name: Stasis
Reagent: 16 Iron Fence, 20 Redstone
Cooldown: 1000 seconds
Action: as described above

^any of that is subject to change...

The idea is great and all, but wouldnt it just be smarter to give merchant the ability to spawn villager eggs with a long cd? Stasis seems nice and all but it would probably take a hell of a lot of coding to make. Also the regen is 2 bloody high, 16 iron fences means an alchemist with some othet stuff could make 4 sets of chainmail then recall twice with the redstone
