I think it would be interesting to turn shroomlights into stair blocks that are able to illuminate a space. I think the method for doing this should be a bit different, however, through the use of shears rather than crafting, as the shroomlight is a plant.
Each time you "place" the shear on the shroomlight, it should lose 1/8th of the shroomlight. The first time it is sheared, it will become the shape of an inner stair (L shaped on top), which normal stairs are able to do already. The second time it is sheared, it will become the shape of a regular stair. The third time it is sheared it will become the shape of an outer stair. Finally, the last time it is sheared, it will become a slab.
Just like placing an axe on wood to get rid of bark does not drop any items, neither should shearing a shroomlight. It's only purpose is to "prune" the shroomlight into a stair/slab shape.
At any stage of shearing, the shroomlight stair/slab should be able to be picked up and moved in its current form. That means that although regular stairs cannot be carried in the inner stair or outer stair shape, shroomlight stairs would be able to.
