Copper Doors and Copper Keys with Oxidation

I just had an idea for how Copper Doors could work. We all know Iron Doors need to be powered and Wooden Doors can open by hand, so what if Copper Doors required a Copper Key? Copper Keys could be crafted with 1 Copper Ingot (since Copper Buttons will never come as they were designed to work with Copper Golems) and they once crafted they will slowly oxidize in your inventory unless you wax them. Copper Doors could also be waxed but will only open if their level of oxidation matches the key you have. Copper Keys could also have durability to make them more valuable or even only work once to make them ideal for Trial Chambers. Since Copper Ingots are always unoxidized it would give a level of safety to anything behind an Oxidized Copper Door, since players would have to either find an already Oxidized Copper Key in a Trial Chamber chest or Trial Spawner or craft a Copper Key themselves and wait for it to oxidize. The same would go for anything built by players such as a storeroom full of valuables. Hopefully you will consider this for 1.21 because Keys have always been an idea I've wanted in the game and Copper Doors would be just the way to do it.

  I like the idea of the keys breaking to use for the trail chambers, however as a player who has dealt with iron doors in the past I know we like to just break them if we can't get through so making the doors unbreakable generated but not crafted could be confusing.
