So, you're building a cozy little farm, you've got your dirt, you've got the pretty picket fences as the background wall, and you want something to enter the little garden with..
You try a door, but it just doesn't cut it. It's far too big and looks way out of place for a garden. If it were a greenhouse, a door would be more welcome, but not for your nice little garden.
Unfortunately, there's not a lot you can do about it. So forth comes the suggestion, gates!
Fence-gates should be small little doors designed to not be connected to a top block, like the door does. In my imagination, they should be 2 tiles high but the sprite itself only be 1.5 tiles high, for that authentic look. Obviously things will probably be implemented differently from what I imagine they'd be, but that's the image I enjoy thinking about. Of course you can put a block on top of the fence and block entrance, but there's (probably) no functional or aesthetic reason for doing so.
Starbound, a similar game to Terraria, has little fence gates in it and I think the little farms look charming and I'd love to be able to create my own in Terraria.
