Recharge Stone spells?

Name: Mithoron of Harvestgain
Question Title: Recharge Stone spells?
Category: Magic
Question: You have mentioned that having an Item spell recarging an item is inherently difficult from a programing perspective...is the same true for "charging" a mana charge?

This could be as simple as instead of the program actually "chargin" the stone with mana, it converts it to a mana charge (one use like regular charges). Is this possible, and if so, what are the thoughts of putting it in the game.

Granted, it would have to be a powerful spell or it would be abused, but just make it a higher level like the portal spells...
