A new use for bats with the cave update

Hey Mojang, when bats were introduced they really had no use, but i have an interesting mechanic that would work well with the cave updat :D, with the introduction of the warden, players when having to go in 'The deep dark' they can use bats to there advantage, aggravating or disturbing bats near a warden will make the warden very confused as all it will here are bats surrounding it, this means the player can easily run by, and the warden wont hear! I do not have an idea for how you aggrovate/disturb bats, mqybe if you shoot an arrow next to a cauldren of bats (cauldren being the word used for a group of bats) and they will panic. Just a neat little suggestion.

    Really like the idea, the bat spawning mechanic would have to be slightly tweaked making so that bats will spawn in cauldrons and not alone most of the times and they could hang from the ceiling of the caves, only moving when disturbed. Bats should also have a new kind of drop the same way phantoms do, like bat wings for instance that could be used to craft a new type of potion.

    How about the potion of the silent could be the use of bats. They would drop bat wings and then you need to make the awkward potion and combine them to get the potion of the silent for 1 minute and it will make you invisible to the warden so you can kill it
