I had a similar idea a while ago, but only from a cosmetic stand point, it'd make no difference damage wise.
Say my SS tank is stood on or near a car or large object and uses hurl. Instead of reaching into the ground, he'd pick up the car and hurl that, while he'd pull a rock out of the ground if theres nothing nearby to throw. Similar goes for Gravity Controllers with Propel, drawing a nearby object towards them then hurling it.
The likelihood of that happening would be minimum, mind, as creating a random object is easier to code then a certain object when near it.
So how do you want to be done? Medium, Well or Extra Crispy?

It would actually be very hard to code, espicially for the car one. The animation would be very tricky.
As for the suggestion itself, I will /signed it but I only have one more point. Make these glowies RARE (and I mean rare, not one on every corner of Atlas Park) like only one per zone every hour. You wouldn't just have a temp power, you would have bragging rights. And it would make it more "unique" instead of like them spawning like the Winter Event Christmas presents.
If my suggestion is put in, then this is fully /signed.
I would say theyre fairly rare, usually only in alleyways or in wrecked areas you will find one there, and they will respawn every half hour more or less.

Heres the Idea, there are random small objects on the street in the form of a glowie, when clicked on they dissapear and give you a on euse only temp power depending on the type of object.
Its much like the Christmas presents you see laying around during the winter event but instead of an inspiration its a temp power, heres some examples of what I had in mind...
Large objects like boulders and crates are thrown much like the hurl power and all have a high damage knockback
Long objects like pipes and bats are melee like the baseball bat temp power from the BM/Wentworths and have moderate ranged knockdown damage
Small objects like stones and bottles are thrown like the halloween event power and give minor ranged disorient damage
Circular weapons like Trash can lids and life rings are thrown like shurikens and give moderate cone knockback damage
there are probably many other possibilities, feel free to add some if you like. Only one object that is picked up may be carried at a time, once used you can then find another.
