When changing into armor, and occasionally when wrestling military dwarves leave their clothing lying about.  Since these are owned items they cannot be stockpiled/moved/dumped, and the clutter accumulates over time. 

I propose a workaround for the problem.  When the seasons change check for owned items not held/worn and not in an owned room/container within the room.  Generate "store item in cabinet" hauling jobs as part of seasonal cleaning.

That'd work.

Alternatively, if there's an item laying around and not in a cabinet/chest at season change, simply remove ownership of it. That'd be like if someone didn't remove their sock from the dining hall for a good portion of the year, they obviously don't care about that sock very much and thus revoke their ownership of the item.

Obviously dorfs can go pick up new items if that was their only sock and they couldn't grab it for some reason, but it would at least stop the clutter.

We need a new 'Spring Cleaning' job.

Maybe extend the cleaning profession to do this?  Pick up any stray cloth and attempt to put them into cabinet dwarves owned.  Or, just make any owned cloth lying about degrade to dust over-time (similar to used bolts). 

Dwarves need to be more proactive in storing their stuff in their off-time... I gave them a crap load of cabinet but they never seems to store them.

Yeah, but it is cool that now dwarves will actually use weapon and armor racks to store things, instead of the just being decorative. However, the annoying thing is that you can't remove items from weapon and armor racks in adventure mode.
