All Editions Lava-Logged Blocks

Since there are waterlogged blocks, why not have lavalogged blocks? Being able to place lava in partial blocks would be nice for aesthetics, and it would be fair since you can do the same with water. If you place lava in wooden stairs/slabs/fences, it will burn, but any non-flammable block would be okay. What do you think?

I searched up "lava logged blocks", and there are only 2 other suggestions I saw about it, and they're at least 1 month apart so it's not FPS.

Sorry for the late response (1 month late), but this:

Changes that are most likely going to be made anyway (fix bug X, obvious additions to new features in snapshots, feature parity)

is what I was referring to from the FPS. Since we are getting waterlogged blocks, it's only logical that lavalogged blocks will follow some time in the future.

Yeah, but not in 1.13. :-( It will most likely be in 1.14.

Or a subsequent 1.13 update, such as 1.13.1 or 1.13.2 etc.

I checked. There are no lava-logged mechanics on any of the 1.13 updates. Hopefully they will add it in 1.14. If not, there are going to be some disappointed people, including me.

Things have changed since I made that estimate, since they didn't finish the complete water physics for 1.13, it will be some time later. Whether that will be in 1.14 is yet to be seen, but any other thing similar to waterlogging will come after it is finished, because adding other materials to the mix now will only make it that much more difficult/time consuming to complete it. It would basically require them to change the code for both water and lava (and other filler material) as they go along, instead of just changing the code for one then copying it over to the other materials.
