Mix/match features from resource pack (was: Expand on the Resource Pack menu/feature)

I think it would be a great addition being able to choose resource packs for a particular feature they have.

For example, I like a pack's font, but maybe the textures or its sounds are not of my liking. So I place this resource pack under a tab that says "Fonts" or something. If I like a resource pack for its ambient sounds, but want to have textures from another pack, then I'd place this resource pack under an "Ambient sounds" tab for lack of a better name.

And with this, I'd be able to have default textures, with sounds from 1 resource pack, and font from another.

I know this can be worked around by digging into each pack's files, transferring them over to another pack, and so on, creating a many-in-one resource pack, but that method is bound to errors and glitches. So what better way to do this than an official and supported method.

Pretty straightforward concept, I don't think I need to expand more on the idea.

Thank you for your time.

    This would be great! I have the problems with the Natural Textures and Skyrim pack. The Natural Textures pack does replace Skyrim's music even tho there is no music in the Natural Textures pack.

    i vote to add a "Custom" resource pack to the list which includes its own menu for selecting which pack to use for each individual resource (a specific or sound)
    and filters allowing you to change all resources of a category to the same pack (tree textures, or just sounds, or only blocks textures or terrain textures, mobs) this would allow users to fully customize resources used and fine tune their experience to their liking

    oh and maybe allow saving and naming of custom packs so you can make as many as you like using any installed or purchased resources

    I just want to be able to use the music from the Skyrim Mash-up with the textures from the Natural Textures pack and the hostile NPC design from the Nordic Mythologhy pack as an example.

    I'd imagine that there are thousends of cool combinations that would be loved from the playerbase and it would also promote more creativity from the Marketplace Content Creators. Because it would be less attractive to just copy a concept and improve it a little bit and just steal the thunder.

    I hope we get the tools for this in the furture to let our imagination roam in more personalized worlds so we could squeeze even more joy out of our ideas and to inspire our friends and famaily to mix and match these things as well.
