The names of screens provided by functionally equivalent blocks/entities inconsistently specify the variant

      The fix for MC-256466 changes the name of boats and rafts to match their exact variant, such as 'Oak Boat' or 'Bamboo Raft with Chest'.

      However, historically, cases where variants only differ cosmetically skip the particular variant in their screen names. This can be seen in shulker boxes, where all shulker boxes, despite differing block names, have the same 'Shulker Box' screen name.

      To resolve what I believe to be an inconsistency, shulker boxes should include the color in their screen name, or boats and rafts should not include their wood type in their screen name.

      The following other situations exist, but are not applicable to this issue for various reasons:

      • Anvil, Chipped Anvil, and Damaged Anvil: screen name is 'Repair & Name'
      • Chest and Trapped Chest: intentionally look similar
      • Furnace, Smoker, and Blast Furnace: functionally disparate and entirely separate blocks
      • Command Block, Chain Command Block, and Repeating Command Block: screen name is 'Set Console Command for Block'
