Zombie Digging:More than just Enable|Disable: Destroy hatches|doors ok.

Yes, exactly this! I was surprised a bit when the "no digging" setting basically amounted to the zombies just can't dig downward. In my mind, zombies would recognize a door as an entryway and should know to attack it, but would avoid concrete blocks and terrain.

In a perfect world, there would be another setting that allows zombies to dig, but only if they can hear you, meaning if you're just a few blocks below the surface, they'll attempt to get to you. However, if you're deep enough, the sound shouldn't reach the zombies or they should just look around confused trying to figure out where the sound is coming from.
