MINING SIDES, (Future): Dwarves sometimes go on a long detour to mine a wall from a particular side.

This sounds easy to throw in the next release? Especially if it's a square they're already next to. No pressure though.

Currently they seem to check if they can mine from a certain direction and will do just that no matter how much walking it takes from that direction even if they were already adjacent to the tile.  One of the suggestions I've seen is to (C) a wall blocking the priority tiles and then immediately suspend the construction.  Even though it doesn't exist yet, the phantom wall blocks their check from sending them to that tile to mine.
