It's been suggested a dozen times to be finally able to input records into a jukebox with hoppers and also take them out.

Even beacons have an inventory slot, that can be filled with hoppers.

In my opinion this feature would be a no brainer to implement. We could finally make music systems and the records also have interesting properties, which would make them interesting for a lot of other redstone applications. They're are a non-stackable item, that could be sorted, because it gives out a certain signal strength, when put inside a jukebox. If we would have 16 different records really compact data storage systems would be a new possibility and I'm sure redstoners could think of many other interesting applications.

This minimal change would create so many new possibilities and spark new creativity, which fits perfectly into minecraft.

I'm wondering if this feature request was forgotten when hoppers got implemented or if there's a technical reason. Jukeboxes can't be moved, that's why I guess they're a tile entity and could have inventory slots.
