Option to Disable Villager Workstations

A simple way to disable the villager workstation feature of 1.14 workstation blocks.

Players love using unique blocks such as these while building, and countless times I've been forced to not use the block I want to. If I did, a villager would attempt to start working at said block and get in the way.

Example: The Barrel. This is probably the most relatable block most people have had this issue with. I want to use the barrel in building, it makes a fantastic pillar base & wall trim. However, I cannot do this because villagers will invade my build and be in the way. (Can't even use it as a standard chest replacement for the same reason) 

If there was a way to disable villagers from being able to link to specific workstations this problem would be solved at no degradation of any other features. I have 2 solutions: 1. Simply add a button inside the UI of all workstations that disable villagers from linking to that block. 2. Add an item called "Builders Hammer" or something similar and whenever you right-click the workstation block it will disable villagers from linking to that block. Option 2 also leaves the potential for the Builders Hammer to have more features added to it later.

    Exactly! I have a problem where I had to remove these blocks from my base because my newly built automatic Carrot/Potato farms wouldn't work because of them.

    I agree 100%. Maybe adding something as simple as left clicking the villager workstation with a stick or something simple. As of now you can only use iron doors to prevent villagers from going into your build but it doesn’t stop them from standing outside of it. It gets even more annoying when you have multiple villagers outside of your build.

    Villegers not linking to renamed workstations would be a proper solution

    Yeah, it gets kind of annoying building a base anywhere near a village and then having a bunch of Villagers claim my workstations. I think if they ever do this, they should also do it for beds some way, as they claim those constantly, too.

    I really need this in the game. I like to make a base in a village, but this makes it very difficult to play the game the way i want to. This feature would solve a lot for me. If someone knows about a mod that does this, please let me know. I couldn't find any.

    This would be great because everytime i try building in a village it really annoys me that a villager always connects to the workstation
