Actually, the real question here is 'do I dare answer this while in earshot of Bunsen?'
Dr. Bunsen Honeydew is the head scientist and inventor of the Muppet Labs, which is actually a real working laboratory and not just a skit on the show. If there's ever a need for something, or Bunsen perceives there's a need for it, then chances are he's either already invented it or will in the near future. Need a banana sharpened, an automatic wastebasket? or some sort of gizmo to detect gorillas? Bunsen's your guy.
Actually, you know what I do wish somebody would invent? A mute button for people. It doesn't have to be big; in fact, it needs to be small enough to be portable and to rest on a small area, but be able to cover a decently-sized space, like a room...or a theater balcony. And maybe it could be operated by remote control, so that it could be turned off and on at the wishes of the performers or theater staff.
That's it. That's what I wish someone would invent.
