Not all the BioWare upgrades are that "clean & simple," Sim. Can you imagine swinging a hammer that has a Girdle and a pair of Gauntlets attached to it? To say nothing of such "components" as the Skull of the Lich and the Heart of the Damned.
I have nothing against the idea that the enchantments from one item can be transferred to another, provided that 1) the result is less than the sum of its parts, and 2) the components and result all fit a reasonably sound theme. And that the process isn't too far-fetched, and the major components are roughly the same type of item. ("I want to combine this Axe with this Necklace and this pair of Boots. Is that going to be a problem?")
