Change XP Drop On Death - Restore All XP

It is very frustrating that if you die (e.g. when your Elytra suddenly breaks and you plummet to the ground) that you lose all but 7 of your XP. I beat the Ender Dragon, was enjoying my new Elytra and then it broke midflight, I died and lost a ridiculous amount of XP.

Can you change the XP drop on death so it's similar to Dark Souls? So when you die, it is a single orb of all the XP you had before death, it does not despawn and will stay at the death site until you collect it or die a second time?

The current mechanics seems very unfair, and it's a drind enough to get past 30 XP without farms, just to possibly die and have to grind your way back up.
