Although the central place for design discussion is ##crawl-dev on freenode, some may find it helpful to discuss requests and suggestions here first.

Inner Flame+ Portal Projectile would have more tactical decisions to make about who to target and when to set off the firebomb, whereas Inner Flame+Enslave can usually be used just as a (t)ell attack and walk away, since it's very easy to have one ally hold up multiple enemies and then detonate.
