Potions brewing revamp

The latest Nether update and upcoming Cave Update are the best opportunity to change that.
What I'd like to see in brewing mechanics:

1. Experience for brewing
2. Changed recipes, so the nether wart wouldn't be a base for 99% of all the potions
3. New potions as, for example:

Waterwalking (w/tropical fish or dolphin's fin)
Return (teleports to spawnpoint/bed, w/grass seeds)
Charisma (w/emeral/or gold nugget/ingot. Villager have better deals)
[all above ideas: u/DocJawbone]
Marathonist (w/both sugar and rabbit's leg. Makes hunger bar to refill in time and improves sprinting) [i: u/drakeblood4]
Fight/Peace Pot(w/ie. gunpowder/wheat. Monsters spawn and attack more/less frequently in bigger/smaller groups. [i: u/chuiu]
Creeper Pot (w/tnt. Player explodes on death) [i: MikeMcDerp]
Full invisibility Pot(upgrade for invisibility potion. Causes not only skin, but also armor and items in hand to be invisible)
Lifesteal Pot (w/golden potato, every hit heals player) [i: u/linkkb]
Fire flask (hits applies burning on hit entity/block ) [i: u/linkkb]
Poison flask (same but applies poison) [i: u/linkkb idea]
{reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/ulupv/lets_hear_your_potion_ideas_ill_start/}

Own ideas:
Nightmare demons Pot (w/suspicious stew, spawns phantoms anytime)
Squid's Escape Potion (w/Ink Sac. If you hit player with that effect, you get blindness for some time)
Sticky Pot (w/slimeball, Player falls slower when near walls and walks slower when not on slimeblock)

And much more...

    Another one that came to my mind while going through feedback would be a new copper craft "Concentrator" which would allow mixing or addition of three potions into 1, increase times of potions of the same level, and reducing inventory space if mojang doesn't allow stacking down the road. 

    I'd love to see weaker potions being able to be brewed in the cauldron as well with Overworld goods, they would have a benefit and backlash sort of vibe, like a 3min speed but once it finished 3 min of slowness. It would make thinking about brewing potions more early game, add another use to the cauldron, and with the drawback still make progress to a brew stand a smart choice. Could even use the above copper block to being removing backlash effects. Adding a step just to get as good a nether wart products.
