Would it be possible for this to be changed from "rummaging" to "theft" or "trespassing" on the permissions list?
With it being under the 'rummaging' list of actions it makes it possible for someone to lift up a cauldron and walk away with it instead of simply using it.
The reason I ask is because I've set up a common area in my village with things for people to use (anvil, meat grinder, cauldron, etc). Rummaging has been off in it so that things could be used but not walked away with, but it makes using the cauldron a bit difficult if it someone accidentally leaves it lit.
