I think this has more problems than it's worth, the current price is something to work towards and it isn't meant to be easy.

How about we disable the actual crafting of beacons? I've seen (waaaay back then) tekkit servers that disabled crafting of certain items for purposes similar to this.
I talked to a few people on Mumble about something like this, when the beacon stuff was released. It went pretty much how VoreReznor said it.1. If a player has 3 wither skulls in their inventory, they type /witherbattle or whatever.2. They get teleported to a 200x200 world where the wither spawns in 10 seconds or so, giving the player time to prepare.3. If they kill it, they have 5 minutes to collect the star before they're teleported to their old position, and the world is deleted. If they're killed, the'll also be teleported to their old position, and the world deleted ready for the next person.There's obviously a lot of coding involved there, and lots of things that could go wrong. Not to mention the creating and deleting worlds on the fly, could cause a lot of lag and other server performance issues. It's an interesting concept, though.
