The mob-trap plant (saves items from despawning)

The mob trap plant is a plant that grows in the lush caves. you would find it hanging from walls and on the ground. The trap grows very filling food: golden berries. Most mobs will try to eat the berries but always get stuck. you, must get close to pick it. If you get too close, the trap closes around you and starts dealing damage. It's hard to get out, like a spider web. If you don't get out and you die, your items will then be trapped inside the plant. this can actually be a good thing, as they won't despawn. This can be a tactic, where when you're about to die you can place down the trap (can be collected with a silk touch shovel) and if you die right next to it, your items will be safe.

  I love this idea, and It would really be useful as a sort of Trap/Last resort type of item, allowing players to save themselves from losing everything while also introducing a new hazard in the caves. It's a genius idea by all accounts... other than the name, I'd say It should be given a more fitting name than just "Mob-trap plant". Perhaps "Snapfern" could work, as It would essentially snap shut in order to deal damage.
