If something marked for sweep is dropped, keep the sweep order on it

[Alpe12]

It's really annoying when we mark something for sweep and a dupe grab it, and drop it for some reason (eg: end of worktime) and it remains there, on the ground, because the sweep order is removed after it's grabbed.

Same should apply to wrangle. Wehn a critter is dropped it should be wrangled again.

Would be a nice improvement for QOL 2.

Yes, also to allow sweeping wrangles critters and put priority on them.

It also would be good improvement if somehow dupes could not drop things they're picked up. All the stuff that was dropped far down in the last moment or into a water That their habit taught me always make tiles under ladders. All the critters, that was dropped into the water...

I get having the mechanic for dupes dropping items due to changing tasks, but the loss of the sweep flag on the dropped items is far too annoying.

If the argument is that the dupe picked up the x amount marked item then a further y amount we don't want to have the y amount inherit the sweep flag. I'd rather have the x+y now both be flagged for sweeping.
