I've been enjoying this game for a few days now and i'd like to offer a suggestion.
I'd love to be able to build storage buildings. Basically a building that either acts as a very large immovable container, or a building that when entered has shelves that cant be removed. It would save a lot of clutter in the villages and allow us to rapidly organize our materials. Giving them special functions, like a granary that when opened has a button to automatically remove all food from your inventory and store it. Or a vault with a combination lock/key for metals, coins and other precious things.
As populations in towns grow so too does the need for organization and storage buildings would do a lot to centralize things.
