I guess that's what those "quick item" slots are for that we talked
about at the summer meeting. I imagine that a weapon or armour assigned
to a quick slot would be equipped when "using" the quick slot. (Unlike
potions that would be consumed or spells that would be cast).

Anyway, stuff like that is rather an issue of the GUI, I think and not
part of the lowlevel code. (Another thing I'm waiting for, this GUI spec
Ben wanted to write)
