Summary0013167: Bedrooms not automatically unassigned on death, results in tedious manual cleanup
DescriptionExample: I just got a burst of 21 deaths (mostly tavern brawl).

So what I have to do now:

Look at alerts, note the name of the first (next) dead dwarf.
Open Zones menu, search for the first part of that name.
From the list of matches, identify the bedroom belonging to the dead dwarf.
Open the details for that bedroom, remove the assignment to that dwarf.
Escape out.
Repeat steps 1. to 5. N times, where this time N=21 - this is indescribably tedious and time consuming.
This is in addition to the usual check on Nobles/Administrators, Hospital positions and Squad members for new vacancies.

SUGGESTION (Probably not new)

EITHER provide a DFHack one-shot command to unassign the bedrooms of all dead entities
OR Fix the game somehow that automatic unassignment of dead owners' bedrooms happens automatically again

Whichever, could this be fixed PDQ, please?
Steps To ReproduceWait for some entity to die
