I also believe that given the existing rates of needle generation this would have negligible real impact in the game balance other than opening up some possibilities for pretty much everybody at a pretty conservative scale.
I don't understand the question about what it would add to the game since the answer is obvious and common to all unrands.
I believe the only clouds that'd need to be added would be para, frenzy and sleep (having curare create miasma clouds is just fine other than by theme, and even then it's not a huge problem) and regardless since there is no other suggested use for these clouds I fail to see why their existence would be inherently bad. Such an angle was not observed as an issue regarding the rod of clouds after all.
I'm not used to seeing such friendly and agreeable responses from you dck, I like it.
In any case, I completely agree with you. Its a really cool idea and I would LOVE to see it implemented.
To all new players: Ignore all strategy guides posted on the wiki, ask questions in the Advice forum, players with lots of posts normally have the best advice.
