Villager Transportation

I'm sure this has been brought up enough, maybe something is even in development. Still, it's a topic I want to address. It's seriously a pain to move villagers anywhere, and considering the new snapshot adding biome-specific enchantment books, hauling one or more villagers possibly hundreds of blocks to a swamp by boat (that can't even go on stairs) is grueling. I don't have any specific ideas on how to do it, I just know it needs to be done in a way that feels at least a little better than using a water bucket to get up one block, just for my boat to drop and my villager to walk away. This is mostly my experience on Bedrock, but I could see it being a bother in Java as well. 

I don't necessarily think biomes should affect villagers, but I could at least accept it becoming part of the game if getting them around wasn't so hard. Please consider the user's enjoyment, we know you can't just let us put them in a water bucket and run with them, but anything faster and smoother than the current system will do the job.

    I agree. Getting villagers around gives me headaches every time. I am now playing on a modded server where we have the option to carry passive mobs including villagers in our arms, which gets the job done perfectly for me but doesn't feel very realistic and like it should be in vanilla Minecraft.
    A possible solution would be an option in their trading menu or a special keybind or item to tell them to follow you. This way you could take multiple villagers with you and it wouldn't feel weird.
    Or maybe there could be some kind of job offer item that would be linked to a workstation. You would give that to unemployed villagers and they would move there on their own (they could walk away from you and then be teleported there).
    I hope that we get an update like this because I really hate dealing with villagers and moving them through difficult terrain or even the nether.
