quality mech's and trap accuracy

I have no intention of assuming that high-quality mechanisms do not help weapons traps - and perhaps others as well - until we have more evidence in. That's how it worked in the prev version, so I'll act on that until we know diff. However, I'm equally sure that citing a quote from July 2007 is not necessarily relevant to the version just released April 2010. (When was 40d released?)--Albedo 22:54, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

Metal

Done, but I'd like you all to look it over as I don't think it's as simple and direct as possible.
