Lava Sea temples in the nether

i wanted to suggest adding Lava temples that will be generated on the floor of lava oceans. It can only be accessed by drinking potion of fire resistance, and potentially allow night vision potions to let you see much futher in lava, as the visibility of only around 1 block would severely cripple a players ability to spot such temples. The temple could be anything really, buti suggest adding "sea" creatures that live in the lava and having some of these be the hostile mobs in these temples, there could be such creatures that spawn naturally in lava ocean biomes that could be added, and maybe have a giant lava serpent as the boss. But if arrows are to be used on it, they would not be able to travel in the lava, a suggestion tthat could also apply to water is that the crossbow enchantment piercing increases its ability to pierce through water and lava. but in order for this to work you would have to have some ability for players to swim much faster in lava too. I suggest maybe making potions of swiftness have a significant effect, or perhaps making depth strider make you go fast. Naturally players are gonna wanna clear out the temple for themselves to use, and perhaps similarly to how sponges can be used to clear out a water temple, maybe you could make some craftable nether sponge, or maybe have it like a nether fortess where the player is intented to raid it only, not for a permenant establishment in it, although having it as your base for the nether would be really cool.

    Sense some ruined nether portals are spawning below the lava ocean maybe it would be logical for them to spawn inside such a lava temple. However doing anything underlava still isn't really doable sense you can't see, they would need to add a way to actually see underwater to add something like this 

     

    Edit: I've seen some ideas of bringing back the nether reactor as a nether conduit for just somthing like this? It could be a good pairing considering the parallels to the ocean monument. tho maybe it shouldn't be a lava temple? Sense there is already a jungle temple? Maybe... the lava... um.. well a word that means travel or road? Sense there might be a ruined nether portal inside it?

    This is great. I was going to suggest something like this but then I found your post. It would be nice to see the temples spawn with the upper part of the temple sticking out of the lava lakes in order to spot them and they could be "excavated" by using sand just like in the ocean temples.
