No derailing necessary. Direwolf showed it off in episode 2 of his new Server Play series. Now when essentia is distilled, it flows into available jars in the same manner the Infusion Altar pulls it. With the cool stream of stuff style of particle. Near the end if you want to see it in action.
I kind of hate skyblocks. Wait, that's not true. I find them insanely boring. The best kind of Skyblock to me is a one thick sand island. The moment you try to mine one, it updates and the whole thing vanishes into the void. And now you don't have to play a Skyblock. Yay. Ahem.
That said, starting on a world with almost nothing even more than vanilla, is very interesting as an idea. Regrowth is a mod pack that does this very well. It's a very hard start, but after a while, it becomes significantly easier to do things and eventually you're down to the challenges of the quests, instead of pure survival.
