Insomnia as a visible Effect

Imsonia is a "invisible effect" responsible for the phantom's spawning, and something like this shouldn't be hidden from the player! New players and old veterans who returned to the game will difficultly know about this hidden effect and their relation to Phantoms!

They will probably think phantoms spawn like any other mob, but that's not true... Imsonia actually looks like a potion effect but responsible for spawning a mob (like Bad Omen when you enter a Village), so if they had a indicator like them and worked like one too people would easily know how and when did they get that (maybe it playing a certain sound and even with a phantom in the icon) people would easily know:

•How did they get that effect(because they didn't sleep);

•The relation of the effect with phantom's spawning;

•Would be easier to know how strong is your imsonia;

•They would even know how to get rid of the effect: By just sleeping!

 

I think this would help a lot of new players and veterans in a lot of ways and the bad feedback towards phantoms would be lowered down

    That would be cool a cool icon for the effect and maybe when you get the effect it would play a Phantom's sound or something like the Elder Guardian does

    It should be also removable with milk or sweet food ( cookie, honey, pumpkin pie and cake) and changed to be gettable  by killing a new mob or doing a specific thing,  because many players doesn't like the current feature, and not sleeping is not insomnia.
