Sealing Containers?
Why would you seal a waterskin exactly?

The only reasons I can think of are glotrot contamination and sealing any containers of lava/acid so you don't accidentally pour them on yourself while both confused and on fire. Both of these are pretty theory crafty though, is there some use for this I'm missing?

You can seal containers so that you don't automatically pick up fresh water when auto-exploring. Also prevents you from spending any water that's in a sealed container when trading. It's just extremely handy to avoid inconvenient situations like constantly becoming overburdened, or accidentally spending too much water.
There only needs to be one change to Sealed Containers, and that's to tell you what and how much of something is in a container even while still sealed. Doesn't make much that info is hidden when it's sealed.

If you use a glass container you can see what is sealed inside of it.

But at 5kg the 16drams bottle it's actually worse burden wise ^^

True but if you don't want to have to open and re-seal to see what is inside it is useful.

Plus with 16 drams of lava it will be worth quite a bit that can be a little hard to pawn off at once until you get to some of the more expensive items that don't weigh more than they cost in water.

Also glass doesn't sizzle when it has acid inside of it unlike the water skins.

Edit: as for a water skin with lava it is even harder to pawn off at certain locations.
