Dripstone usage

Dripstone isn't really used that much, and there is no reason to have that much dripstone found in the dripstone caves. But, here I have some creative ideas to give it a use

Dripstone and sponges

It would make sense, if Dripstone could dry sponges, like they will do with mud in 1.19

Dripstone and mossy bricks

If we place mossy bricks/cobblestone, it will return to be normal bricks/cobblestone

Dripstone and Sand

If we place a Pointed Dripstone Under a Dripstone Block, and above the we will place Sand/Red Sand, and above this water, we will have Salt in the cauldron under the Dripstone

Salt

Salt is useful for foods, because Salted food gives more saturation than other foods do

Driptone and Dirt

If we put Dirt over Dripstone, after some time, the Dirt will dissappear, and we will be left with Raw Copper, Raw Iron or Raw Gold, or just nothing. This process would be useful for finding ore veins
