My thoughts on the other details:


 * IMO, they should be 10-12 blocks tall. Not ridiculously big, but they were explicitly stated to make modern elephants look wimpy in comparison.
 * They should be able to destroy blocks, to a limited degree. We know they come from the Jungles, so naturally they should be able to knock down trees (which is canon, btw :-P). This would make them not suffocate in their natural habitat and more imposing when you find them. It'd also be nice and realistic for them to plow through wooden barricades and the like.
 * They should be rare and very difficult to tame and control. They should also only have one rider in the traditional sense.
 * They should do massive AOE charge/trample damage.
 * One should be able to build on certain parts of their backs. Since mobs can't be solid, this would allow multiple players to ride and also have siege towers on the backs of Mumakil without making overly complicated models.
 * One should be able to apply warpaint to them.
 * As Southron units, they should be extremely expensive.
