I'd like Bungie to bring back fall damage in the next game. It actually adds an element of danger to getting the advantage of the high ground.Agreed. If ODST is any indication, it shows that Bungie may be starting to dislike the idea of a invincible, overpowered badass that kills aleins and doesn't afraid of anything...
And what better way to decry the spartan's fabled invincibillity than making a game about how a squad of five spartans who were so amazingly strong at combat were helpless to stop the world around them from burning to the ground?

An option for custom games, perhaps. But fall damage would kinda kill the point of mancannons, right?
Who says there are mancannons? Anyway, fall damage gets you thinking weather or not you should do something 'cause it might kill you, and your k/d spread is everyothing to you.
Why do you think there won't be?
In addition, the point of fall damage is not to force players to be overly cautious to protect their precious stats. How many people do you honestly think are going to just "accidentallY" fall?
Fall damage blocks off certain pathways in a level. For example, if I have a verticle capture the flag level where the defenders base is at the top and the attackers base is at the bottom, it wouldn't work with Halo 3. The defenders would jump to the bottom quickly to kill the attackers and if the attackers got to the flag they could just quickly score it.
With fall damage, you force the players to stay on the walkways but you also create sightlines for them to fight at medium range from walkway to walkway downards.
