(This RFE originated from my comment on this issue, which has more discussion on the idea.)

I think there should be more monsters fighting bare-handed. It would feel more interesting, and allow for more likely weapon drops without resulting in more junk.

More non-humanoids would be really nice, too, and a good excuse to have weaponless monsters. Especially cats as long as there is no Cat Lord. I want my revenge. DIE, CATS, DIE! :-P
