Good ideas. ;-)

Is this the right or appropriate thread to start listing what one should
learn in the guild map? And the shared maps?

For instance: movement (walking, running, attacking), applying/removing
 and (un)locking inventory items, buying and selling from a shop, using
money conversion and detect magic/curse altars, learning spells,
learning new skills and so on.

AFAIK, at this time - such a check is not possible.  This will require
some developer/coding updates.
