Summary0009346: bags cluttering with inedible seeds from tree fruits
DescriptionI was getting spammed by 'cannot mill, no bags' message and was wondering why.
Looking at my furniture stockpile, I noticed that not only did some bags contain gypsum plaster (which I expected, since that's nothing new)...

But it's also filled with bags of pear seeds, peach pits, cherry pits, and bayberry seeds. Which are the 4 fruits that I am harvesting from trees.

So apparently, the edible fruits that are harvested from trees yield unedible seeds, that clutter up bag and stockpile space.

They do not appear in the kitchen menu, so I can't use them for cooking. Seems the only way to get rid of them is by destroying the bags that hold them.
Or is there a use for them that I am missing? (warning, IRL do not eat the peach pits. They contain arsenic poison)
Steps To Reproduce1) designate a furniture stockpile to hold bags, designate some fruit trees for harvesting.

2) brew the fruits, or let your dwarves eat them raw

3) watch bags with inedible fruit tree seeds end up in your furniture stockpile

forgot to mention that they cannot be planted either on outdoor farms, but that makes sense, since they are tree seeds, not crop seeds.

When there is a food stockpile that accept those kinds of seeds, the bags will be moved from the furniture stockpile to the food stockpile.

At least that makes it easier to see how my empty bag stocks are doing at a single glance. Still clutters up bags though.
