Follower Whistle (New Item Idea)

If I understand correctly, being able to order followers to attack a certain mob has been (intentionally) nerfed in Don't Starve Together. For a good reason I'm sure, but it got me thinking. What if there were a craftable item in DST that allowed us to order befriended mobs to attack like in the base game? It could be a whistle and be made from say, 1 gold, 1 rock and 1 flint and have around 20 before the durability runs out and a new one needs to be made. This would make it so that it would still be nerfed, but in the sense that it's possible but will cost a little bit of the player's resources. Has anyone thought of something like this before? I'm curious.
