Village houses should get cushions added inside them

There are stairs meant to be chairs inside some village houses in the game way before cushions were added to snapshots, now that cushions are a thing those chair-stairs should get cushions inside them (maybe the same color as the beds in the house). This would make village houses look slightly better, accurate and give a new player an idea of what cushions are.

Also villagers should randomly sit on cushions for a small break while they aren't working if they happen to be near one.

    just logged in to suggest this and saw 2 or 3 other posts about it, so i'm voting for all!

    i agree 100%, anything that adds more interactions and movement also gives life to the game. i love building towns for villagers, it would be super cute to have them sit down on cushions that are within a short range!!

    I'd also adjust villager behavior so they sit on cushions if they are in a structure that can be considered a chair.

    When a villager has a job, only those with a job that is often done while sitting would sit down:

    * Fishermen
    * Toolsmiths
    * Cartographers
    * Fletchers
    * Cleric
    * Librarian

    They would arrive at their job block and check a 5x5 square around it, ignoring corners, so just 20 blocks to check. If any of those blocks are reachable, have air in at least 5 blocks around it and 2 blocks over it, and have a cushion that isn't inside a block, other than those that would still allow seeing most of the cushion, like stairs, slabs, a banner, etc., they'll sit on it.  

    Nitwits and unemployed villagers would sit whenever they want as part of their random villager behaviors. If they get "I feel like sitting", they'll look for a cushion nearby, check if it isn't near a job block, and if it isn't, sit on it for 1-4 in-game hours. 

    The same goes for socializing villagers off the clock. They may sit sometimes as part of their random behaviors.
