I don't know a ton about the coding side of Minecraft, but I suspect it might be problematic to be placing multiple blocks in the same space and having one visually overwrite the other. The only comparable I can think of are item frames, but in those cases both items remain visible.

My counter-suggestion would be that animal skins are treated similarly to banners and torches. With both banners and torches, you can place the objects directly on the ground, similarly to the way rugs work now. I would propose that the functionality be added to fur rugs that they can simply be hung on the side of blocks, presuming there's enough space beneath them for them to hang fully.
