damn cleaver again

[lordgrunt]

Please for the love of all that's holy and unholy:
Enable butcher's cleaver to auto equip while butchering/slaying animals.
I know that logical things rarely make sense to devs, but this is so blatantly obvious, you even made pickaxe to do the very same thing I'm asking.

better would be if we could choose what tool for what action..
just a little extra screen on the char sheet or so.
chopping trees: this metal axe
splitting logs: this stone axe
butchering animals: this stone axe
killing live stock: this cleaver
destroying stumps: this shovel
destroying building: this pickaxe

etc

that too, but my main issue is that when you start to slaughter an animal, no tool is selected, you can do it with bare hands. if at least most recent cutting tool was selected it would be fine, but to start slaughter you have to manually equip it. and since only cleaver gives speed bonus to slaughtering, it should be the default.

The flower menu after right-clicking an animal carcass should let you choose what tool to process the carcass with.

I've previously made a thread about thee similar cases, where the best tool for the task at hand has an easy objective answer:
