Harvestable Biome Specific Colored Blocks

I think it would be insanely cool if we where able to pick up things that change color based on the Biome and place them somewhere else with their original color with them. I know Mojang wants you to explore places and create your base in different biomes but sometimes the colors for Foliage and water at the biome isn't what you want.

For example, I'm making a muddy pond but the Biome im in has very bright blue water. Id like to pick up Mangrove swamp water and mix it in with that water around the edges of the pond. Then a gradient is created between that water source and the surrounding water.

Maybe you can do something similar to the Lodestone compass where you right click a block with shears or a bucket to get them but if you use a regular water bucket the water will do the normal mechanic.
