From a mathematics standpoint, it makes perfect sense. And it's really
quite simple to solve, anyway.

Anyway, there's no reason to save the ->on structure.
When you save the player you can just force the bed into his inventory
so it's saved with the rest of hist stuff, and set some flag in the
savefile so that when the bed is loaded, it isn't put into the
inventory but is instead loaded into the room and the player is placed
on it, asleep.

Sunday or Monday I'll code it up if there's still demand.
