I'd love to have my taylor for example to be able to move unrestricted trough my base but only work inside the tailor shop. So it would be neat to be able to zone the shop and tell him to only accept work orders given by stuff in that zone. Like "do bill at tailor bench", "clean tile X inside workszone", "haul muffalo wool from shelf to bench" etc.. just becaus I'd like him to haul, clean, repair, construct etc. but only inside his litte zone. I don't want him to deconstruct a shippart at the end of the map or clean the hospital, I want to be able to control him without constant micromannaging the fun out of the game.

I would love something like this.  I already create a custom zone called "Work Here" that I assign whenever I want something like this for a specific pawn but it either has to provide them a path to food and their bed (not always convenient or sensible) or I have to remember to unzone them twice a day.  It would be great to have a zone that applies only when they are restricted to work activities.

This is exactly how I got the idea.
I got a zone for urgent work wich I put down whenever I really need something to get done. I'd just love to not have to micromanage every litte bit of the game.
