Please let us disable interactive items

I 100% support this. I have a lot of food and drink items out in my apartment that I don't want people eating. Being able to turn interactivity on/off to keep people from eating the decorations would be wonderful!

If its in your apartment or your FC-room, no one but you is able to interact with it - so no one (except yourself) can eat it.
In your own house only you and your tenants can interact with things - again, visitors wont be able to touch the food.

...so the only "problem" are FC-houses where all members can interact with all interactive furniture - even if that allows for potential abuse or even innocent mistakes to happen. It would be very useful if we could have settings to prevent both.

I learned something new today, thank you! That's pretty fantastic news as well. My wallet and required grinding time both thank you for the insight.
