Suggestion, not bug: Water is a pain to manage/organize

Dupes used to be able to harvest water directly from sources, before the recent introduction of the Water Bottler. Admittedly they couldn't be commanded to do it, and just did it automatically if there was water within reach, but I feel 2 things would make the collection of water much less annoying: Allow Dupes to harvest water (as they can harvest any other material with the "dig" and "sweep" commands; the mop command is simply insufficient for large quantities of water), and allow water bottlers to be connected to pipes just like virtually everything else. That way, it would be perfectly easy to drain underground caverns so you can expand and build into them, and would have the dual benefit of having all your water in one, central reservoir (perhaps you would have to run any "harvested" water through the water un-bottler first) from which all your water needs are met, and your Dupes wouldn't have to go a thousand miles to resupply your damn Microbe Musher - they can just go into the next room and turn on a tap that's plumbed into the rest of your base.
