leather - no fire problem ? ...please don't necessarily believe that yarn. I spend a lot of my time involved with seating design, certification, and manufacture and the reality is quite different.
There is often a problem (principally) with the dyes and other treatments in the leathers.
Generally, for horizontal burn requirements, the leathers are usually ok. However, if you elect to go with a horizontal burn test for your interior, then make sure that you don't get injured in the prang ... and get out ... real quick .....
For vertical burn tests, it is a case of suck it and see for each dye lot.
For the flamethrower test, leather can be a real pain. Again, it is a case of suck it and see.
But, leather, no problem ? .. not necessarily so .....
