It doesn't happen much (at all?) these days, but more games should support importing the save file from an entirely different game.
Early on in Unangband's development history, I supported important vanilla Angband character saves: the game was initially - and arguably still is - an Angband + cool stuff variant. Since then, the two save file formats have undoubtedly diverged, but I'm still tempted to redo this functionality.
Here's a chart of some games which did support this functionality.

This would be swell.
That said, blast your link for reminding me, yet again, that somebody attempting a modern Roguelike remake of Deathlord would probably stand to be ever so swell. : /
