Respawn Anchor - Different (new) item to recharge

I love the new respawn anchors and the bring-back of the age-old crying obsidian. The texture looks great! (Props to Jasper) My only issue is the use of glowstone to respawn. Glowstone has always just been used as a light source. To suddenly make it usable for recharging respawns makes little sense. So I thought why not make things a little more magical? The ghast tear is an item that is barely used so I thought maybe there could be a new item crafted with both glowstone and a ghast tear to create an "anchor charge" of sorts for the respawn anchor. This would give ghasts a greater importance in the game and would also make respawning in the nether a little more balanced.

  how about if you use a bucket on a soul fire you get soul fire bucket but if you brew it with ghast tears you get a 3 soul anchor charge. Blue ones that can also be used in enchanting - if you put a book with one in an anvil you will gain a random enchantment, most likely fire related or soul strider.

  Maybe this change can be a block  similar to redstone blocks or torches, or an item that can be used as many times as you want since ghasts are annoying to get tears from since they don't always drop it and when they do its quite commonly in either lava or fire.
