I wonder if it could sort of be fudged by having stackable items create a "pile" container, which would store the individual stacks but act as a single stack for hauling purposes.  That would cover bolts to an extent (just find some way of using the same quality/material filters we already have for stockpiles and the like), but owned coins could prove to be more of a problem.

Bins, Quivers, Bags?

No need to add more container types. Although I'd love a Shelf (for stacking barrels et. al.)  simply for aesthetic purposes.

I really love some of these ideas. Particularly underground nests, fossil zombies, and endolithic monsters.  They would balance out how easy it is to get Miners to legendary status and insure that you can't get away with a wall and some Marksdorfs for military.

It also opens up avenues for new pets.  Imagine encountering a nest of Rock Hounds.  Slay the adults and you can adopt/train the puppies. These could have special properties like eating rocks you don't want. Or maybe Iron Hounds, immune to magma.

You could also have hidden nests for menacing water critters located under rivers. Be careful where you dig, you'll awaken the !Omega Carp! or perhaps the !Mutant Lungfish!

Toady has talked about a heat-workshop or somesuch.

Turn off job failure notifications. It's inconvenient, but the game is unplayable with no-water spam.

Out of curiousity, do you have any non-evil biomes in the corners of your area?

Goblin petards seem to be quite appropriate. Who needs trolls? 

My current favorite is a Dark Gnome Bone Door.  Dwarves do not take kindly to short evil competitors, no sir.

I'm kinda worried about using it as a main gate though.  What if it gets buildingsmashed... *cries*

I guess the question, how can you possibly be so far behind on your hauling that you have hundreds of logs and nothing in your stockpile?
