I do strongly support this idea.
I think that a prisoner having a cellmate would allow him to become "friends" or "enemies" with him and maybe they'd start always being together, or maybe you'd have to change prisoners from cell to cell because he might not get along with most other prisoners. When/If fully implemented it would give the game another aspect in which you can try to control the prison to ensure it runs smoothly.

There should be dorm bays, and special status given to prisoners there long enough. IRL they are called trustees, and wear different colored clothes and they have chores like cooking and cleaning that they do while supervised!
It would be awesome because you could save funds and keep then occupied. Perhaps a second schedule for the trustees, like kitchen duty, extra free time, and doors that only staff + trustees could enter (lie the kitchen for example0!

+1 for this idea
If you check out Louis Theroux's documentaries on various prisons (might be able to find them on youtube?) you see that some cells hold 10+ inmates, and also that when fights do break out in cells the inmates play it down, keep things internal and deny it ever happening outside the cell, because they're always looking to keep guards away.

I think this is a good route to go in further down the line. We have this system already to some extent with the holding cells, but if this was implemeted then they could transition into being actual holding cells for processing rather just being a population buffer.
I'd hope we'll get things like bunk beds at some point as well; it would add more legs to the experience in terms of what kind of population density a prison could support - with ever increasing over crowding adding problems for the player to deal with.

Whilst on the subject, perhaps also have dormitories. Not that usual here in Europe, but is all the rage in the US for the more docile prisoners. Would work more or less as a holding cell, only a certain minimum amount of beds are mandatory. Number of prisoners allowed into a dorm equals amount of beds installed.
It is quite usual here in The Netherlands, most of the prisons I saw from the inside over here had some kind of dorm some even with a kitchen where prisoners could make stuff they bought in the prison store.

Bunk bed
I think if you did this it could only be to and you would need a bunkbed
