  Like most things, this can be a matter of opinion.  I do think that generally 
objects that players pick up should be given more a left/direct on view (not 
slanted).  I think that matches how most other pickable objects are done (armor, 
potions, etc).

  Looks fine to me.

  Given it is broken and unclear if such a change is a good thing, I'd be 
inclined to just close it out.

  Wonder if anyone tried it out.

  Given it changes existing wraith players to some extent (although it appears 
not really in an incompatible way) change should be carefully considered (and/or 
going with the recent discussion on different trees, only go in the tree for 
next major release, once that is set up.)

  I wonder how many people are using ipv6 so this may not be something that is 
tested/used a lot?  Still good to have.  Wonder if metaserver (or an ipv6 
metaserver) change would be needed also.
