Well, yes, if I could claim crap like those damn shirts that dwarves just drop in the middle of the hallways

I had this problem, check their room and look in their containers and cabinets and see if they are full. If so, add another container or cabinet. The only messy rooms I get now are where folks have too many items and not enough containers, or rooms that have multiple room designations overlapping the containers. (I made a large children's room/daycare with multiple beds and containers, but the kids don't use them apparently due to overlapping designations, and instead just toss their stuff on the floor, but I actually like how that looks for the children's room.)

If you have a dwarf or two with just way too much stuff, you can always build them a storage room. 1 bed or assignable room object, and then a dozen containers. :D

This is the basic gist of "Corpses Should Be Containers", the currently 25th-ranking suggestion on the Eternal Suggestion Voting.  In other words, it's a known problem, but Toady has had trouble fixing it, so he's been putting it off.

Really? Where's the list, I'd like to have look at it.
