Request: Sitting emotes/animations and Interactions!

It's a small detail.... but my oh my how it drives me crazy: you cannot do anything while sitting. Maybe coming from Skyrim has me feeling some type of way, but it really does add to the experience when you can sit and interact with the world around you (still play ES5 on PC, occasionally start a new build with different mods).
I'm assuming it wouldn't be too complicated to add these things, because we have seen these in Tamriel already:
Clarification: I am not asking for an emote using props, I am asking for basic game mechanics and animations (i.e. eating and drinking) to function while seated (i.e. speaking to an NPC) instead of forcing the player to stand up. As far as the menu animations go (map, searching bag, etc.), just make them compatible while you are seated. Let me search through my bag or read a map while I let my legs rest.
Compromise: while not ideal, I would also be happy for Seated Emotes (a new section in the emotes menu). They can only be used if you are already seated or mounted. Or, just make certain emotes auto adjust while seated/mounted (when used they just animate from the torso up).
I'm assuming it wouldn't be too complicated to add these things, because we have seen these in Tamriel already:
- Allow players to speak with NPC's while sitting (i.e. you can do it while mounted).
- Allow players to remain seated or in an idle emote when accessing the menus, without canceling the idle emote/causing the player to stand up (i.e. you can stay mounted/seated when opening the menu, but while standing you will pull out a bag/map/etc.).
- Allow players to eat/drink while seated (provisioning and alchemy), instead of forcing players to stand to do so (NPC's can sit and eat/drink).
