does the planepacked glitch still work?

Also, does the workshop need to be "outside", or just not included in the burrow?

Yes it works, and the shop just needs to be outside the burrow.

It did as of .12, so I expect so. My first fort nearly had one - would have, if I'd figured out what was going on rather than deciding that the game was terminally glitched and force-quitting. If I remember correctly, the dwarf decided which workshop to go to while he wasn't in a burrow, and was assigned to a burrow on his way to the workshop. He then took stones from the burrow to the workshop, which was still not in the burrow. I think that extending the burrow to cover the workshop would have broken the loop, when I was ready to do that, but I don't remember if I actually tried doing so or not. (Don't think so tho.)

Dying (ceasing to be alive) is also not a Moodable skill. Even totally unskilled Dwarves seem to do it correctly.

While adding magma to anything will make it dwarfy, adding the word "magma" to your post does not necessarily make it funny.

Since burrows don't actually tell a dwarf where it can be but just where the objects it can use are, what if you forbid a workshop that's claimed?

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.
