The bug
So if filled cauldrons act like water and can put the player out when they are on fire, shouldn't the player also be able to use their riptide trident when standing in a filled cauldron?

This is still true in 20w16a.
I am pretty sure this should be easy to fix; many waterlogged blocks have similar behavior to water when using riptide, and any cauldron with a state above 0 (with water) should allow the riptide trident to be thrown.
