I'd rather like to see every stone- and bartype written only once with the amount of them left in brackets after it as I dont think they differ from each other at all.

But what if it decides to build a building out of stones that don't have a path to them?  At least with how it is now, you can realise what is happening, and choose a different set of building materials from the list.

The game would be required to find closest stones of appropriate type, then check if the dwarf can get to them, if not, find next and check it and so on for every stone if needed. If still unavailable the game should point out that fact (and the stones found of the chosen).

For now it could also tell the stockpile name of the stone, if it is on any. So we can choose one which is not too far away.
