Hmm... I'd say that value modifiers should be ADDED to the base value, rather than multiplied.  Think about it - a well crafted gold goblet is not worth much more than a crudely crafted one, simply because the value of the gold itself overpowers the craftsmanship concerns.  On the other hand, a masterfully crafted bone bracelet could be worth a fortune, probably about as much as a masterfully crafted gold bracelet, since it's the crafting that you're paying for, rather than the material.  Would the Mona Lisa be worth more if it were painted on a gold canvas?  Not particularly.  What about that "painting" you did yourself, despite having no particular artistic skill?  Yes - because the gold is worth something, even if your painting is rubbish.

Of course, the value modifiers would have to be changed to reflect usage with multiplication rather than addition.

Hmm.... more disappearing containers - I had a similar thing where I noticed various drinks all over the floor in the food stockpile.  They were all even different colors!  The stockpile was indoors in my case, however.

They really just need to send the job out again if it gets canceled for whatever reason.

Yes.  I mean, there's already code to spit out the errors into the worldgen log...

I bet those two best breeders are in fact husband and wife... XD

Well, undead at very least attack elves.

Had the same thing happening here.  Ther suddenly decided that foodstuffs belonged in barrels in the furniture stockpile.  Once I undesignated the furniture stockpile, they hauled the food barrels back where they belonged.
