I don't think more inventory slots are needed, right now the number of objects a character can carry already seems to be limited more by the total weight than by available slots. (unless you want to walk around encumbered). It might also be a good thing that you can't carry around everything you find, there's really no need to carry that low value ultra heavy armor around for that few extra gold pieces. the transmute spell is a nice idea though.

Maybe items to store scrolls or other items (magic bags etc) would be a nice adition but they should come at a high price, something to spend money on)

Basically showing the selected area as if the character walked there - maybe it's a spell or costs gold to use?
maybe the scroll around option could be activated while the game is paused.

good idea.

- Toogle on automap to show walls, items, open chest, close cheats, stairs etc. For example I could select walls, and closed chests. This would show me all the closed chests in the level with the walls. Might not need if 'look around' feature is put in from above.

Feedback on any of these ideas?
The first can be done by modding the xxx_terrain.txt files. the second is very hard to implement because all available mods would likely have to be changed to apply the new feature.
