Fire Creates Up drafts to boost Elytra

I once played a mini game on Minecraft where you raced with Elytra, through a race map. Large fires on the ground created updrafts, propelling you upwards, allowing you to continue gliding. I think this up draft feature should be in Vanilla Minecraft. Placing fires around your base would produce light, and up drafts to allow you to glide without fireworks, and climbing all the way up a structure to get air. It would also let people make their own glide maps in survival, and creative.

    This might be better for campfires instead because of the smoke rising as a visual cue

    The campfire was my inspiration to post this, and it does make sense given the particle effect.
