How about a pair of expensive high level gloves that rot_death or something or have limited use so elves/drow/woodies can manipulate iron/mithril keys. Please? I don't know if this idea is really relevant to your little contest, but I remember discussing it with an imm when I was stuck in el inferno, and he said to mention it. So I am. Liberate te ex inferis!
