Minecraft has a lot of blocks, but what if they had more? Why do we need them? Please don't just add lists of things - these will be marked as spam and removed! Also, no furniture, guns, or vertical/"sideways"/"upright"/"standing" slabs (yes, we see you).

Long Range Light Source for Larger Caves

Looking at the new Cave Biomes in 1.17, I can imagine it'd be a pain to light them up and find every ore. That is why I think we need some kind of throwable/shoot-able light source that would ideally, stick into walls like an arrow. Considering Crossbows already fire different kinds of projectiles, what's one more? I propose a "Flare" or "Light Arrow", that would act as a long range deployable light source.

Perhaps, it could even be an "Impact Arrow", where the impact of it hitting a surface causes a flash of light. Or more simply, Spectral Arrows could simply now glow.

    I think a splash potion of glowing would be fun, it would last for a while until the effect ran out. Also, it's how real life glowing things work.
