In nethack they call it 'polypiling' and I think it adds a lot to the
game.  Of course, in nethack, objects would transorm into objects of like
type -- i.e. rings turn into other rings, armour into random armour, etc.

And, or course, occasionally metal (or stone) would all combine together
and form a golem, and a rather upset one!


>Bug or nice feature :~)

Feature. The only bug is in the frequency of appearance of 'rare' items.
