Database-side Files
Hope this is the right place to put this, but I have a suggestion that is highly possible, I just don't have the skills needed to do it. We had a database in 0.4.4 where the Quests and Spells were both Database side, although it needed some work. The tables were separated into around 20 columns per row, each column being a space for a quest command. It was much quicker and smoother than the .pl or .qst system, and the npcs tended to respond a lot quicker. As for the spells, I know that's possible as well and wouldn't take a lot of code change, at least I don't think so, but would make spell editing lots easier, and also the convenience of not having to download a new spells_us/en.txt file. Just a suggestion. Bring the flames.
