Optional vignette setting

The black border around your screen, known as a vignette is TERRIBLE. It's SO very distracting especially for people with certain disorders...it should truly be an option, not mandatory. On my PS4 version (I have PS4, Xbox 1 and now the bedrock on Xbox 1S Versions-had 360 version before too lol) it's not there and it's so refreshing visually when I switch between the versions. My brain just works better without that blackness drawing my eye over and over and making it hard to see. I don't WANT to lose some of my fov just to a useless black border. I upped my fov and it SLIGHTLY helped however it seems to warp everything giving a fish bowl like effect that makes it impossible to play if it's set high. PLEASE consider this!

    To add to what OP said, you can currently disable this feature by turning Fancy Graphics off.
    However I enjoy every fancy graphic except this one, would be nice for vignettes of all types to be their own toggle option (with the exception of the pumpkin mask overlay). I'd like to be able to disable everything that borders my screen as I also find these effects extremely visually distracting and detrimental to gameplay.

    I've started to realize the vignette effects in Minecraft give me a constant sense of claustrophobia. Even when out in the open in full daylight.

    Pressing F1 to hide the HUD also makes the vignette go away, instantly removing the primary source of my claustrophobia feeling.

    While the vignettes are removable via custom resource packs it would be nice if this was an accessibility option since updates frequently break old resource packs.
