Wand of beckoning could work on items

[05:58] zenzombie: would be cool if beckoning worked on items (with limitations) [06:01] spicy cebolla: wait why does it need limitations [06:02] spicy cebolla: it's already pretty rarely useful wand [17:06] zenzombie: one limitation i was thinking was grabbing items from a vault where you can only take one [17:49] spicy cebolla: oh, right. that'd be cheezy [18:20] withinwheels: Would make a fun variant of the "levitation-or-lever" keyholder [20:24] zenzombie: Perhaps with a single-charge wand of beckoning found somewhere on the level.

This would be cool, but I'm not sure about this part:

[20:24] zenzombie: Perhaps with a single-charge wand of beckoning found somewhere on the level.

Wands aren't typically something you'd think to use on an item; maybe it should generate with two charges instead, so you have a charge left if you use your first charge on a monster to identify it?

This is different from e.g. a potion of levitation, which has a long enough duration to let you reach the key even if you use-id it somewhere else on the level.
