Dripstone variants!

Dripstones are a great addition to Minecraft, but I think they could really use some different variants. The normal dripstone texture is brown and feels out of place in a lot of situations.

Stone Dripstones
These dripstones would have a very similar texture to stone, but not exact. They would spawn rarely in normal caves along with the already existing ones.

Deepslate Dripstones
These dripstones would have the deepslate texture and would be found rarely in the deep dark, and would replace the normal dripstones in dripstone caves under y level 0.

Ice Dripstones
These dripstones would have a slightly transparent icy texture and would be found in mountains and icy biomes. When a light source is placed near them, they would fall and break after a few seconds.

Mossy Dripstones
These dripstones would look the same as stone dripstones, but with moss covering them. They would be found in lush caves and rarely in jungles.

  I think the variations should be:

  dripstone (current)

  ice-dripstone (an icicle, I like the idea of icicles)

  limestone-dripstone (a yellowish-grey rock, in between stone and sandstone, to make a dripstone that blends better with stone, andesite and sandstone)

  dark-dripstone (a dripstone variant that is a dark-reddish color, to blend better with the darker colors of deepslate as well as granite, netherrack, and red sandstone builds)
