ElusiveAstropath proposed this to me, but didn't feel comfortable creating an actual "bug report", so i'll argue its merits.

the mod:

fundamentally, the request was to have a place to store things that other players fundamentally couldn't get to. it was suggested that you only get this ability once you had played on the server a long time, e.g. had a level of 50 or 60.

i personally think it'd integrate w/ the server better if it was a high-level magic spell - something only the wizard class can access, and it shouldn't be cheap to access it. there's precedent of magical pocket dimensions in d&d and similar systems. this would require us to adapt the mod, instead of just installing it w/out the necessary integration framework. we haven't even settled on a magic system, so even if this isn't vetoed immediately, the implementation is a long way away.
