What is the criteria for creatures coming to visit?  Would gorlaks, troglodytes and trolls, or wandering overworld animal-folk be able to walk into your taverns and start partying or will they still operate as wild animals?  Will wandering gorlaks/trogs/trolls/animal-folk be equipped with weapons or armor or skills from interacting with other civs?  I haven't seen kobolds mentioned in the visitor examples, are they capable of visiting?
They are definitely capable of visiting your tavern. Whether they are capable of paying for the things they take is a completely separate question.

And then there's whether they are capable and whether they are willing.  But that brings up an interesting idea.  You could have thieves that enter the fortress as visitors instead of hiding and running from the first cat that crosses their path.

While this won't be an issue in Vanilla, what happens if you're playing a race that's not opposed to cannibalism, and you start serving the meat of sapients in your tavern? Will other races, particularly the ones whose kindred you've butchered, object to this state of affairs?

I don't think there's a way in current versions for people to dislike food, so I wouldn't think so, but if it becomes an issue, it should be easy enough for Toady to add.

It wouldn't be so different from Dwarves not butchering sapients, after all.

You know, it occurs to me, what with the new changeable ethics, that you might wind up with cannibalistic Dwarves, in Vanilla.

But in the same vein, wouldn't elves be offended by sitting on wooden chairs on wooden tables?

Any sense of how quickly a new LNP would follow?  It looks like last time the new version was released in January and the LNP followed  in July.
