Suggestion: Some kind of gliding modifier on chest piece

Having a lot of fun with the mod so far, incredible work here :)
Is it possible to add glider modifier to the chest piece in future update?
Thanks
I too would like to add my voice in requesting a glider add-on. It would be appropriate to have it be a crafted accessory for the chest piece, requiring an elytra and possibly other rare ingredients to craft.
I'm considering it, but I haven't made a final decision on whether to implement something like this or not.
there are many other mods that provide one form of flight to another. I mainly really like how the construct armor looks as well as other aspect of it (leveling, customization) and would rather not wear a different armor simply for their functionality.
Instead of requiring elytra (requires accessing to the end city, which a lot of custom world gen in various mod pack do not have), I think it would make more sense for a more customized recipe similar like Ender IO glider add on for the dark steel armor.
If you do go through with this, (you totally should) could it be a modifier rather than accessory, or at least make it so other accessories can go on with this one as well. Or at least configable whether multiple accessories can be added.

Accessories are created when a potential modifier either 1) needs a keybinding or 2) needs special rendering. It's because of these reasons that allowing multiple accessories on the same item would cause problems, that's why they're mutually exclusive. The glider add-on would need to render the wings at the very least, so it needs to be an accessory.
for this you could use the Colytra mod as a substitute . it basically lets you combine an elytra with any chestplate item on an anvil at the cost of 30 xp levels . so ... no modifier cost and lets you have the accessory as well . and you can configure the elytra to use the chestplate's durability which I highly recommend ( plus its made by TheIllusiveC4 so thats a bonus :) ).
