Armor Stats

Thought of this last night, so I checked to see if it's been suggested...did'nt find anything...
Being a GW fashionista, I thought would'nt it be great if you could wear ANY armor in the game no matter what your profession? Damn, I sometimes see an Ele, or Rit piece of armor and wish I could mix and match with my Mes. Of course it would have to have a dash or realism about it...You could'nt have an assassin bouncing about like the neighborhood spaz hopped up on mescaline whilst wearing full plate armor, just as you could'nt have a warrior rush in tanking whilst wearing that rakish, yet thin mesmer jacket.
I propose that armor have different attributes connected to its purpose..i.e. a Warriors chestplate would have a +10 armor, but a -5 agility. A mesmer gown would have a +2 armor and a +5 domination...(just an example).
I don't think could implement it now, but perhaps for GW2? I don't think it would add too much complexity to the game, but it would certainly help with the variables in character appearance.

hmmmm No, I wouldn't like this. Mostly because the armor is really the defining image of the class. and I couldn't imagine doing a backflip in full plate armor

- 5 agility?? do you play GWs?

Whats agility and why should the whole game mechanics be redone so you can wear the aromr you want
As stated armor defines the class

wait for GW2

I do, indeed, play GW. This is what you would call speculation. Its is nothing more that a simple suggestion, placed in an open forum for intellectual consideration. I harbor no delusions that such modifications would be made for my benefit alone, and would not wish as such.
My most humble apologies if I have offended your fine sensibilities. Please do understand that no malice or ill will was intended.
...now chill the frakk out.
