More Than Capable (1.6-b)
[url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1803932954]More than Capable[/url] updated for 1.5/1.6
A note about 1.6 update:
Since the mod was heavily rewritten, there may be some issues that I did not catch during my testing.
If you find any, please report them in comments with preconditions and steps to reproduce.
Before reporting, if it is possible, try to reproduce the issue without any other mods enabled (except Harmony).
I cannot promise patching mods incompatibility issues or adding support for other mods (I can try, though).

Original description:
Tired of pawns who refuse to do certain types of work, even when their own lives and the survival of the colony depend on it? This mod changes the way in which the game handles "incapabilities." On the pawns' character tabs, you'll see that the "Incapable of" list has been replaced with a list of "Hated work types." These types of work are marked in amber on the work tab, and aren't assigned by default. But they can be assigned if necessary, as any pawn can be assigned to any type of work. Be aware, though, that if you assign a pawn to do hated work, there's a mood penalty (and eventually movement and even manipulation penalties) that will only grow worse the longer the assignment lasts. This mod is intended to allow you to assign pawns to work they hate in emergency situations. It is *not* intended to allow such assignments to be made on a long-term basis.
Note 1: Since "violent acts" aren't a specific work type, pawns who abhor violence are capable of violent acts -- combat, etc. -- if and only if they're carrying a weapon. But so long as they're armed, they will suffer mood debuffs just as if they were assigned to a work type they hate.
Note 2: As there are easy ways to "get around" restrictions on tasks like hauling, anyway, "incapable of dumb labor" is treated a bit differently than other incapabilities. Pawns who hate dumb labor are simply given an extra trait that reduces their carrying capacity and their unskilled labor work speed. They won't be assigned to hauling or cleaning by default, but can be assigned to those tasks indefinitely with only a minor mood penalty, which doesn't get worse over time. For similar reasons, pawns who hate plant work or skilled labor can still be assigned to plant cutting with only a minor static mood penalty.

Compatibility:
"More Than Capable" can safely be added to a game in progress. If you remove it you will get red errors, you can save and reload to make them disappear.
Compatibility with "Achtung", "Do your F*** Research", and potentially other mods that change forced work:
Disable 'Allow "Force Do Job" Behavior' in More Than Capable settings and restart the game.

Known Issues:
since 1.5 or earlier:
[list]
[*] work assignments of hated types are lost after reloading saved game
[*] drafted non-violent pawns can fight even without a weapon
[*] slavery isn't overriding pawns' capable work types, leading to mood debuffs when assigned to "hated" types
[*] mechs work types are unlocked but with no downsides (Mech Work Tab mod?)
[*] traits related to hated work types can still appear on pawns
[*] ?
