There is another way for which you could do this which would be long and
painful but it would be doable..Save the item # of the object for which
their sleeping on within the save file before they quit... if their
sleeping... when they login, look for just where it calls the function to
put them in the room.. Check to see if the object is there, and if such,
simply put them to sleep on the object setting ch->on to what the object
number is, if not load the object drop it in the room and then set
ch->on...do this before calling do_look... you could pop a message to the
room like So and So poofs from non existance sleeping on bleh.... so players
knew what was going on..
this is a long drawn out process, but this is what I would do... This would
also take quite a bit of code..

I think the best option for this ix would be to code in the do_quit
function a part where they just deault to standing each time they
quit. That is indeed a little hackish I know, but it would fix that
problem because there is nowhere where a ch->on is saved as well as
the possible problem of the bench/couch/whatever will not be in the
room next time they load. You could even just have them stand up and
sit down so when they log in next time they are sitting or resting. I
think it's just a generally bad idea to presume a piece of furniture
will be in the room when they log again (which will result in a crash
or sure if it's not). That's just my thought, I've done something
similar and no one really even notices or has said anything about it.
There's my 2 cents. Best of luck!

Heh, keep trying, I learned to program on ROM code. If you aren't
breaking something, you aren't trying.
