(Bedrock Mobile) Add aiming crosshair when holding any throwable item

Right now mobile bedrock does not have the crosshair in the middle of the screen that is normal for other versions.  This makes sense because 99% of the time it is absolutely unnecessary for mobile.  It adds the aiming crosshair when you are actively charging up the bow and trident because that's when you need to know where that spot is.  However, it does NOT add an aiming crosshair when you are holding throwable items that do not need to be charged.  This makes it basically impossible to aim snowballs, eggs, and most importantly ender pearls.

Ender pearls are an amazing utility for transporting yourself around your world, but they are much less useful when you don't have an indicator of where you are aiming on your screen.

Please add an aiming crosshair on mobile bedrock when you are holding a throwable item in your main hand.  Mainly ender pearls, snowballs, and eggs.

  Yes, please.  While battling the enderdragon, it is absolutely necessary to hit the target on the first try while throwing an enderpearl.  I usually have to throw three or four.

  This sounds like a significant oversight on Mojang's part, voted.

  You know when you hold a fishing rod and have this bar above the hotbar thats says "fish", and when you press on it you can use the rod? Well I though that that should be added to enderpearls, snowballs ect to make it faster and easier to use them, since we moblie players have to press down for it to throw. I'm just adding this because I think it would be a good addition along with what you said, which I strongly support.

  This is something that should be obvious it makes it so that I don't make splash potions but this would make it work much better. Maybe you would hold and release the potion but you could also just tap because it didn't need to charge up.
