Different water buoyancy for different items

What I'm suggesting is basically the title. Different items might have a different set buoyancy than other items. For example:

-Obsidian may have a negative buoyancy, so it will sink

-Iron blocks might also have a negative buoyancy, but not as much as obsidian so it would sink slower

-Many wooden items would have varying positive buoyancy levels, so they will float, but not necessarily at the same speed

-An item with a buoyancy of -1 would sink at the same speed that an item would float at with a buoyant force of +1

-Some items could have a buoyant force of 0 (zero), causing it to neither sink nor float, but stay in position in the water

    I totally agree it is strange to mine some sand or clay at the bottom of a lake and seing the blocks elevating to the surface

    I also think the main reason to add it is to be able to separate/sort the items based on the difference of properties instead of make item sorter with hopper.

    Especially it would be possible to separate the armor items madeof different materials (and same thing for the tools)
