Doors and Windows and other POI editing stuff

So the new doors and windows are great... however....

 

  • No interior solid doors?  Or, at least, where are they?  I don't see anything for interior doors when searching for "door" except things like pantry doors and such.
  • No doors that aren't boarded up for exterior residential doors and glass sliders?  I get that people board things up but I don't necessarily want that look.  If there are some, where are they?  I don't see any when searching for "door".  And boards on a glass slider really look weird... how are you attaching the boards to the glass?  It doesn't look like they're attached to the frame to protect the glass.
  • No square windows with the "+" in the glass (the ones with 4 panes of glass) that are not centered?  I can no longer place this type of window in a thin wall unless the thin wall is centered, which normally isn't an option.  This used to be possible.  I'm stuck with just a single pane of glass in a frame as an option or one of the non-square window shapes.
  • Screen doors... great idea but not the best look.  You have 2 doors.  One with a frame that opens inward the same direction the regular door on the inside opens, which is very weird.  The second is without a frame and opens outward, which works for using 2 doors.  However, it has no frame and so looks weird and you have to manually make a frame for it.  I don't see why it doesn't have a frame.  You can't just rotate the doors to change the direction they open because they have to be pressed together into the doorway.
  • Double shed doors?  It would be nice if we had some.  You have the option of exterior house doors which have a door handle (in both the new and old styles) that simply looks wrong for a shed.  Or you can use a double metal garage door but it's not what you'd actually see on most sheds.

 

Other POI Stuff...

  • The TV stands look great.  It's too bad you can't actually put a TV onto a TV stand because the stands are all only half height.  And you can't even just flip them over because they have legs that look weird when upside down.  So a TV stand you can use that is empty.  Otherwise you're stuck with a bookshelf or table or something that is full height.  Why have the stands if you can't actually use them?  Even placing a wall mounted TV above them looks weird because it's too high versus the height of the TV stand.
  • New TVs (not wall mounted) when placed onto a half width "stand" like a single bookshelf lean outward from the wall as if they are about to fall over.  We shouldn't need a full width stand for a TV.
  • Sinks... Why, oh why, do you have to make them so much of a pain to put into a POI?  2 parts for the kitchen sink and I have yet to find the bathroom sink insert.  No more single block sinks and searching for "sink" doesn't give you a bathroom sink option for residential countertop sinks.
  • Shower curtains are where exactly?  I'm making due with drapes on a rod that kind of look okay but not ideal for a shower, imo.  People don't normally place drapes on their shower.  I admit the drapes look much better than the old curtains that were used on showers but still....
  • What happened to the cobblestone pallets?  I see cement, sand, fertilizer, flour, cow feed, and bulk goods.  No cobblestone.

 

And I know this has been the case for a long time but why can't the blue ? blocks in an old POI state what the original block's name was so it's easier to determine what you need to put back in there?
