Autodonate all the equipment left untended in particular rooms
every so often. That is, if equipment is dropped and no-one
touches it for a few minutes inside the main city, then have it
wisked away to the donation room. If there already is four or
five of the same object in the donation room, junk the rest.
That way, it simply looks like newbies donated their equipment.
It keeps the temple from being too cluttered, and helps people
recently dead get at least *some* equipment before they go and
attempt to retrieve their items. :)
