First: sorry if someone already submitted this idea.
Here is the gist: portal to other servers.
It's normally easy to connect to an other server. Just disconnect to the one you're currently logged to, and use the minetest UI to connect to an other one. This usually involves entering the IP of the server, your login/password and so on.
What if you could do this within the game? Like when you pass through a nether portal, except you're not going to the nether, but to an other world on an other server.
I think it could be very interesting, because it would give a topology between servers. You wouldn't have to remember the names of the servers or to leave the game and search for them in a wiki on the web.
Also, it could be fun to just walk through a portal without knowing anything about what there is behind it.
Imagine: you own a house on a friend's server, and in your basement you'd have a portal with a wooden sign saying "use this portal to visit my world on my PC :)"
