Digging Daikara

As I cannot imagine this being intentional, I'll post this in bug reports.
Daikara walls are undiggable, while there are many mobs that pass through walls there.
I just had to say byebye to my Frost Treads, and another 30-ish pieces of gold/loot, dropped by Harkor Zun and it's fragments, as I cannot reach them.

Something new that was added for b29 or b30. Not sure if I like it, especially when loot appears in the "mountain chain" tiles.
But basically, regular mountains are diggable, mountain chains are not.

Sorry for double post, screenie of mountain chain in TP2.

- Lack of mouse cursor due to using software cursor (hardware cursor is invisible at all times, this one only in screenies, heh)

I have encountered this one time: on a level in Daikara that includes Burb's "Snow Giant Camp" vault. I haven't seen "Mountain Chain" tiles in any other non-worldmap level.

When you successfully dig a square in Daikara, the adjacent mountain squares sometimes toggle between rocky mountain (diggable) and mountain chain (undiggable).
So gold or items atop a mountain chain square can sometimes be accessed by clearing adjacent tiles.

Also, when you try to dig an undiggable square, why not make it stop after 1 turn or even simpy not let you? Would save just a bit of time.

Playthrough with a berserker, the only mountain chain-free levels were Daikara 5 and Rift-Daikara. This only started up after Shockbolt's tiles became the default tileset... there any way for tiles to determine what gets plunked down?
