Terrain & River Rework: Dynamic Flowing Rivers with Currents

Right now, rivers in Minecraft are quite boring. They are mostly just flat, static pools of water that sit at sea level without any real movement. It would be awesome if we could get a terrain rework specifically focused on rivers. Rivers should actually flow downwards from high elevations (like mountains or hills) all the way to the oceans. The most important feature would be adding real water currents to rivers, so they physically push entities and boats along the flow. Great examples of how this could work perfectly in the game are mods like TerraFirmaCraft or my own mod, Dynamic Waters. They prove that flowing, dynamic rivers make the world feel much more alive and make exploration, building, and boat travel incredibly fun. Please consider updating rivers to make the Minecraft terrain even better!
