I have seen a similar command - it grants ownership of the object
to a specific person. This action 'costs' experience points, but allows a
person to use the "call" command. The "call" command simply teleports any
equipment belonging to you, uh.. to you. So if you really liked a piece
of equipment, you'd claim it, and could be assured that you'd never loose
it. Of course, if someone else gets it, they can claim it as well... and
override your claim. But if a mob kills you, corpse retrieval can be
pretty easy.
Personally, I thought that this was rather unrealistic, but maybe
you could get a mage who would enchant pieces of eq in this manner
(spec_proc time!) and charge an enormous fee.... Never know..
