: This would allow map makers to indiscriminately mix whatever monsters and
: textures they wished. It would also allow netmaps around two dozen
: different weapons.

I think you're overestimating the capabilities of the Shapes and Physics files. There are a fixed number of collections, bitmaps, and weapons, and some of these limits cannot be increased without massive changes that would make the engine and file formats incompatible with all existing scenarios. You'd run out of room to store all those different assets, unless you built your own Aleph One (and your own ShapeFusion, your own PhysicsEditorOneJ, etc.) to support this project.
