- Falling objects and creatures create mist in water AND MAGMA! on impact.

- Creatures don't seem to hit or be slowed down by the water, more testing is required.

Tested in arena and fortress with both creatures and items. It does make mist.

Yes, you are right, I missed that somehow. I'll edit the OP.

[Mrhappyface]

Can't wait. Now goblins can reliably become !!goblins!!

I wonder if you can now order unhappy dwarves to dump things in water to get a mist thought. That'd be kinda nice.

It appears the mist is only 1x1 tiles, not expanding. Though when you throw elves across magma while playing as a bronze colossus, they skip twice on the surface before going in. Each time they skip, you get a mist puff. Strangely, skipping on a liquid doesn't cause injury, so a carefully timed skip across lava/magma that lands on dry land on the far side is harmless.

You could make a mist generator by setting up an automated cart loop where carts build up a lot of speed and then skip across a pond next to your dining hall in order to shower the diners with pleasing mist. 

It might just be better for FPS than the old automated waterfall method, as well...
