The pharmacist mod did good at this, and I think it's a feature that should be made core.

Set different medicine types for different kinds of wounds.

Example:

Be able to save glitterworld medicines for infections and operations, but only use herbal medicine for cuts and burns and frostbites, and eschew medicine entirely for mere bruises.

This is especially useful given that there doesn't appear to be a way to micromanage a patient's medicinal settings in such a way as to pick and choose which wounds get treated first.

Don't better-quality medicines make all wounds heal faster? If you can afford glitterworld meds, your painful bruises will be gone faster, so that pawn will have full consciousness from not being in pain for so long.

Yes. This wasn't an issue in earlier versions where even serious wounds healed very fast. But recovery times are very noticeable now, even for relatively minor injuries.
