Stronger Powder Snow!

Ya, Powder Snow is a REALLY cool concept.
BUT!
The execution is... Not very cool.
The thing act just like as a cosmetic. It is not a real threat.
The fast freezing from the last snapshot is nice, it really helps, but is have 2 ideas that would make the thing a little more challenging, therefore, more fun.
1. Make the thing hard to escape, please!!! We already had the leather boots and leather equipment, that literally makes the powder snow just disappear. At least, if you not wearing the "Anti-Powder Snow" equipment, you should have a hard time with the block. I suggest that, while in powder snow, even if only a little submerged, the player takes way more time to break it, even with a good shovel.
2. Natural regeneration. Would be very cool if the Powder snow just DON'T disappear forever after you break it, a creeper explode or something. Imagine that while snowing, some holes on the ground will be filled with it again. If not, maybe a structure where this can happen.
3. Deeper Powder Snow Traps. 3+ Blocks deep. Please.
I know that "Bad thing happens" only if the player do something wrong, but you guys don't thing you are following that principle at the point it just make some things BAD and UNINTERESTING? If power snow becomes stronger and dripstone falls naturally, would not be the end of the world. Would be just cool.
