ArPharazon reports some other missing announcements: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=99625.msg2931355#msg2931355 [^]
That reminds me: There are certain common announcements, especially job cancels, which should be zoomable to but aren't. Examples are:
- Urist has created a masterpiece.
- Urist has become a recruit.

Announcements for nobles' production mandates transitioning from gold to yellow and from yellow to red would be nice as well.
