You DONT NEED TO READ all of this, just the 1st paragraph is my suggestion.
Summary: using cauldrons to dye water to make a natural looking pool in different texture packs really is depressing. So my suggestion is dying 1 water source block at a time. There is a such thing as being "too limited" for certain sought after designs and i think water is a bit of a problem for those seeking ways to be more creative using it.
The rest of this is just some more details on why i want the change:
Every texture pack i use has a few things that i strongly dislike about it lol. I get that nothings perfect so im not asking for perfection, im asking for something to help make things more tolerable. The nightmare before christmas texture has become my number 1 favorite after they switched up on how they made animals in the city texture pack. The animals in the city texture pack used to look like animals which is what i would expect if a city had a zoo, but then the dolphins and turtles were added and theyre dressed up as scuba divers....
Ive had people tell me, "why not just use a different texture pack" and im just like, "the heck you mean? None of the other texture packs have dogs as beautiful as the city texture, beautiful paintings, modern like furnaces, PLAIN carpets (i use carpet a lot for lighting cause i hate placing visable light sources everywhere in my huge mansions. So having little to no plain looking carpet is a big killer for me), etc.
This game is beautiful, and one of the reason i play it is for how creative i get to be in it. Limitations are nice but somethings like keeping us from dying water source blocks feels to me like an unnecessary limitation. Cauldrons feel really horrible at being used as an alternative for water especially in pool designs
