Actually, that would make potions of poison useful since potions of blindness
are already quite useful.  (eg, you've just eaten a floating eye and you
don't have any gloves [or dead lizards] and you've found a zoo on level
12 with 5 cockatrices running around that you don't want to inadvertantly
run into.)
