It would be nice if Space required was added... i.e.

Candy cane (Space required 1 spot/square/unit)
Wanted Poster (Space required 6 spot/square/unit)

I've thought about this a lot, especially since this information would go really well with all the room maps we've collected.

It requires a little more information than this, however - you need to specify the width and depth of the item. For some items, you need to specify how it is an odd shape. And it would also be great to know the height of the item (relative to some standard - like a table or crate or one of the rock pylons).

I would like to see us do this eventually - but I don't think it will be able to fit in the basic item template we have now. Instead, I think it would be good as part of an expanded set of information we can put on a full page listing. So for links from the timeline (for example), it would go to the full page directly. If you see the item embedded in another page (for example, on the category listings), a link on the item itself would go to the full page.

And this might prompt a change in the template - which would force a LOT of changing.

What do people think?
