Apologies if this has been suggested before.

I'd really like it if the sizing of rooms, bridges, farms etc. all used the same scheme. Preferably if they could be done in the same manner as designation. It doesn't present a real problem, but the game would just feel cleaner and more cohesive that way.

I kind of like the farming, I need a plot this big, now where can I put it system.  I also like the room's 'grow to fill all space from this point' option.

Sure, maybe roads could be handled more like the pile designation, that sounds like a good idea.

Actually farms would work fine from the designations menu, like when mining out a block of stone. Just select one corner, drag it, select the other corner. Bam! Instant farm. No fiddling about with other keys.
