Plumbing? I use 1 single tile of pond zone and keep filling until all is muddy. No plumbing.

Of course, now I'll only have to do that on rock.

Marthnn likes obsidian, steel, star ruby, goblin-cap wood, the color bloody red and giant desert scorpions for their tails. When possible, he prefers to consume sunshine. He absolutely detests cave blobs.

A dwarf wants to heal.  A dwarf is motivated to heal.  A dwarf is, by Armok, going to heal or die trying!  Because if he doesn't heal, he doesn't get alcohol.

No plumbing?  But that's not dwarven at all!

It is intentional. Underground soil needing to be irrigated was actually a bug to start with.

Not really, no. There were bugs associated with it, but it was (generally speaking) intentional.

I think there's a distinction being made here between needing to irrigate underground soil (bug) and needing to irrigate rock (feature).
Yup. I take it most people posting here never played 40d. Wow I feel old now...

Whoa, something made easier in this update? 
You seriously mean I can set up a decent-sized farm even more early on? :o
Finally, a 31.19 feature that makes things EASIER.

AMAZING. <333

My biggest problem was generally setting up early farms before the freeze/waiting a season for the water to evaporate; this is a HUGE help.

Now I can use plumbing for more sensible things, like a drawven waterslide.  :D
