Summary0001057: wounded dwarf gets stuck with "recover wounded" job even after death
DescriptionI had two dwarves wounded (actually more, but only these two matter). One of them had a "recover wounded" job assigned to him in the "jobs" menu, but on viewing him, he showed as "resting" - on the floor of the hospital, not in one of the beds. The other dwarf stayed where he was with "no job", even after his wounds healed up to yellow. The first dwarf eventually died because nobody gave him water, but the job list still shows that HE is the one to recover the other wounded dwarf (who by now could just get up and walk away probably), so no other dwarf will recover that particular wounded, nor does he even try to walk to a bed himself.
Steps To Reproduce
Additional InformationThe dwarf that never got recovered was lying on a cage trap, but not being unconscious he didn't trigger it (if unconscious dwarves still trigger traps, not sure).

I had this happen as well. A dwarf was assigned to recover a wounded solider but the dwarf died, and the soldier was forever stuck waiting for recovery. He eventually starved to death.
