Thatīs a good idea ...
I always had rooms designated to noble positions in my fortress (meaning that I would manually change their assignment as soon as another dwarf took it) .

Would definitely nice if such a thing could happen automatically

Let's not forget about Tombs: if the stinkin' loser gets ejected from Mayor position, there's no reason for him to keep a Noble-grade tomb either. Just try to die when you're in office :P .

Perfect idea!

EDIT I noticed it on the http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/eternal_voting.php as "Assign rooms to Noble/Administrative positions"

The major issue is not really reassigning new nobles to existing quarters. The game needs us to have more control about assigning them to begin with. I just spent half an hour to assign my gemcutters and gemsetters to a new location (dedicated workshop area/burrow) because itīs impossible so far to filter by job/name/whatever.

Itīs a mess. Nobles get listed first, thatīs fine. After that you have to scroll through endless lists of random dwarves and only  abusing nicknames can help you there. Not good.

It is interesting to discover that 5 year old suggestion is still valid even after years of new versions.

+1 on it, by the way

Ah, yes, how the most basic of UI adjustments can save so much heartache.

Also, is it possible to assign the nice tomb to the replacement noble, and assign the newly accident-ed noble to a burial in a shallow ditch?

I can't be the only one who does that.

Yes, with the buildingplan plugin.

There was a typo in the siegers' campfire code. When the fires went out, so did the game.

It would be interesting to be able to assign rooms and items to positions.

Precedence to another.
