Summary 0008305: Auto-identify jewelry upon wearing.
Description Editing this report for clarity. We have plans to auto-id jewelry (including artefacts) upon wearing. wheals has a patch for this that will likely go in 0.15 after 0.14 branches, so tagging for 0.15. Feel free to resolve when said patch is merged.

Original report from Arrrhythmia:
Okay, so, if I am a mummy and I am hit by an unidentified dagger of poison while wearing an unidentified ring of resist poison i will automatically ID the ring of resist poison despite the fact that I am intrinsically rPois and I didn't even know the dagger was poisonous in the first place.

We can certainly try this, and I don't like players jumping through hoops for tiny identification gains. However, the following thread shows that there is more to the id minigame than players might think:

In other words, let's try this change once 0.15 is out, but also with an eye towards thinking how id could be made more interesting (rather than flat out removed).

Done in 0.15. I agree that keeping the identification game interesting is not something we should forget about, though.
