  At that rate, why not just turn random tele****tation into a
potential negative curse effect on items.  Such a move could help
in expanding the nature of curses as well.

  You wouldn't get a Ring of Tele****tation (+2 Speed), you would
get a Ring of Speed (+2) with a random tele****tation curse effect.
Or Ring of Constitution, or Damage, or whatever.  Like Aggravate
Monster being so popular a negative effect in RandArt systems.

  Whether Remove Curse could kill the random tele****ts depends on
whether you'd want it to be a removable or permanent effect.
Or *Remove Curse*?
