Had a thunk regarding the 'rope-ladder issue' in the upcoming release:

Making an actual up-down rope ladder is fraught with peril due to path finding issues, but...

I wonder if you could rig up something using the pit/pond animal code.

So you set up a building with your rope and mark some dwarves to be dropped down it. They get dragged to the location and rappelled down to the bottom.

Since it's probably a job for whoever is doing the pitting rather than the pittee, it would likely be relatively easy to get to work on military dwarves without too much rework there (although that may not be such an issue these days)

Getting them back up? Well, you'd better send a mason down, too...

I'll have to go play with Dwarf Companion and see what happens if one of my dwarfs gets marked for pitting
