I've already done it in a mod I made for my enjoyment, although it will have to stay private it does have surface tension and it cleverly changes water coding to go near eachother. I think it might cause black holes but I've not tested in a while and I'm compiling a new element at the time of this post.

Please, if you cite developer decisions in the past, post them instead of possibly making assumptions. I don't remember anything like that going on in the IRC.
I see what you mean, this could be done, look at gel, and code a slightly modified version for water. I can't see why doing it like that would cause many coding issues.
