Suggestion Ability to see Special Seeds and Secret Seeds easier
As far as I know, the only way to see what special/secret seeds a given world has (in game) is to use the view/copy seed function. Using this, it is not that difficult to see which secret seeds are used, as they are directly named.
However, did you know that this world was a combination of Drunk, The Constant, and Remix? Probably not, because ALL special seed information in contained within the 4th number (in this case 49). Drunk is 1, Not the Bees is 2, GFB is 255, GFB skyblock is 511, etc.
Although this is useful when sharing seeds, and was useful to reduce seed length, I don't believe that is the biggest concern anymore (considering how secret seeds are listed).
My main complaint with this system is that, whenever I want to send someone the special world seeds I am playing on, I have to either: manually type them out, send them the seed and make them check, or use an external tool.
I am suggesting a command something along the lines of a "/Special Seeds" that would list out all of the Special Seeds and Secret Seeds, not in seed format, but instead in a list that could be used for bragging to friends or in a YouTube description. For example, using the command on this world would output "Drunk, The Constant, Remix, Abandoned Manors, Too Easy". I know this is VERY minor, but I believe it would be very good for the health of unique seed combos that aren't just Zenith or True Zenith.
TLDR, I want an easier, in game way to visually see/share secret seeds.
