One of the most used and tedious actions is to assign table, bed and throne to a dwarf and stripping captured creatues of their equipment.
 I think it would be quite easy to make a designation that will assign this three funiture items(as it seems only this items define office dining room and bedroom) to a dwarf so making rooms will save you clicks and moving coursor.
Same could be done for stripping captured goblins and other weapon and armor users from their equipment. Not you have to dump, de-dupm and use other workaround, maybe it is better to add designation to strip caged creatures of their items.

I'm not sure I understand the first part. You give each dwarf their own office, dining room and bedroom? And you want the 3 rooms to be assigned as a group?

If that's what it is, it makes sense. It's also been suggested that you should assign rooms to noble positions rather than individual noble dwarves. So you'd assign a study to a mayor and when the mayor changed, those rooms would automatically pass on to the new one. So if a dwarf died, whichever dwarf got his room next, would also get his dining room and study.

Well, you could just select a square and all beds, tables and thrones will be assigned to Urist McManager

You can kinda do that now if you make a room with internal doors but it won't assign tables as dining rooms or thrones as studies.

Yea, I know, but that's the point of suggestion - to make designation assign all this stuff to one dwarf instead of clicking on every piece of furniture and then assigning them individually.

Ah, got it. So it's essentially an improvement on macros unless you make differently shaped rooms. Also, macros for assigning rooms are slow for some reason.

what i thought instead of this is an option to just select a dwarf and remove all assigned rooms from them. so if a noble has a room already but i want to place them in the proper royal room i don't have to hunt throughout my expansive 3x1 bedroom complex.
