Snow Golem Upgradeable with Ice Balls

The Snow Golem in current Minecraft is more of a novelty rather than something you would build for any practical use (outside of snow farms), so with the addition of Ice Balls I think it would be really cool if you could use them in some way on the Snow Golem to get them to throw Ice Balls instead of their regular Snowballs which do no damage to mobs outside of the Blaze. Having the Snow Golem able to do long range damage would make it useful for defending your base or other structures from farther distances compared to the Iron Golem which needs mobs to get close to it. One of the main reasons I think the Snow Golem should get this change instead of say just adding a new ice based golem instead is simply from that fact me and many others as kids tricked ourselves that the Snow Golem could do damage to mobs and always built them to defend our base, it would be cool to see this idea come full circle and also have the Snow Golem get the love it deserves.
