Happy Ghasts shooting fireballs

After so many years we will finally get a flying mount out of a Ghast! A mob known for shooting fireballs at you every chance it gets so it would be a wasted opportunity to not have it shoot fireballs while you are flying on it.

The keybind to do could be the sprint button. (If it's like the horse which doesn't sprint.)

And also since it's not in the Nether anymore you would have to feed it something in order to have fireballs available. For example you could feed it fire charges or some spicy Nether food like the fungus.

    Alternatively, I had this idea:

    Sad Ghast

    When a dried ghast is set on fire, it should turn into a sad ghastling. This is a neutral ghast that is attracted to fireballs. Once fed fireballs, it grows up into a sad ghast, which cannot be stood on and shoots fireballs if attacked, but can have a harness on.

    Fun idea but imagine you're building and you click the wrong key... Boom! Building gone

    i think this could be an amazing way to replace the TNT duping. by having a renewable way of explosion through the happy ghast

    I would make the fireballs a different projectile. There is some ghast lore, i don't know much about it, but i think it would be better if he shoot like big snow balls. Just feed him snow blocks, and he will shoot them. Also i would change the way it fires them. There should be like a limit of ten blocks in a ghast, and he would shoot them automatically at nearby mobs, but you would need to refill him.
