Allowing single dwarves outside.

The title says it all. I'd enjoy being able to allow a single dwarf outside.

It can be done by means of selective exits and allowing all out, but then you can't keep the trade depot entrance open.

You can do this in the upcoming version.  The "stay indoors" orders have been replaced by burrows, and you can control the burrow assignments of individual dwarves.

I never realized burrows entails this! I was so close to making a suggestion thread with something like "hey, couldn't we have a system where you can let 'medics' and siege operators go outside by marking them or choosing a "Soldiers, siege crew and 'medics' allowed outside" option?"
