As I mentioned awhile ago, I was interested in having a parsing format
where the player could type something like:

>examine bob's shotgun
  or
>kiss theresa's nose

The "<creature>'s <held>" format would look for an object that is
directly in their possession (not descending into any containers or
such).  Would this be hard to implement?  I'd like to pursue this.
Thanks for any info..
