  Yeah.  But as it is now, it doesn't make a lot of conceptual sense that you 
have a bow, wand, rod, horn, and talisman all in hand at one time.

  Fortunately, there are not too many range items that really give such 
benefits, so its not likely to change balance much.

  It is possible to create different body locations for these items, but this 
gets a little odd.  It really doesn't make a lot of different - largely the idea 
is to get rid of the logic in the server that deals with rotation of ranges and 
so forth.
