 I notice that in the standard distributed archetypes, gates don't have no
magic/damned set, so by default, gates are passable.  Default behaviour probably
should be to block magic and the like, but to update that at this point would
probably break some other behaviour.

 Yeah - there is a definate difficulty at times trying to figure out the
keywords you need in a conversation.  Anything that can help things out a bit is
probably a good idea.

 I notice that the code will only create auto apply objects (like those
treasures) if they are actually on the map.  It won't search inventories for
them.  I thought that was fixed at one time, and it probably should be now (I
can't ever really see a case where you don't want those items created in an
objects inventory)
