Change function of furnace Minecart

With powered rail, We don't have any use of furnace minecart so as java don't have movable tile entity so furnace Minecraft will behave like normal furnace just like chest Minecraft behave as chest

    I think the Furnace Minecart simply acts as a cheaper alternative to placing down powered rails. On the other hand, they could be made to both be powered by coal and cook things at the same time.

    I quite like the current use. It makes moving villagers into your farms significantly easier and cheaper as it will push other minecarts forward, and a furnace minecart can go a good hundred blocks before needing more coal.

    It is slower and powered rail Is quite fast. If we use powered rail then moving villagers will be quite fast and save a lot of time

    If furnace minecart behave as movable furnace then it will give rise to quite a large no of contraption that involve smelting

    yeah but you forgot that the furnace with minecart can connect up to 4 minecarts together (not sure if the furnace with minecart counts as one). Just make sure not to go through any turns. I think a better way would be to make it so that sneak+right-click with coal [or any fuel] in hand gives the original use [& adds to the burn timer], whereas regular right-click will open the "furnace" gui.
