If no care is taken, the players' increased complaints born of greater interest in the safety of their non-expendable characters could well lead to an attempt at running the server democratically which always ends in trouble as players don't know what they want but do know whatever they have now isn't quite it.
Whackmeister's bang on target too.
The question is, are the benefits worth it?
That depends a lot on the mod.
In the case of EfU, I'd say no, they're not.
It needs too many changes to work smoothly under SV.
And with weaker monsters, fewer magic items and whatnot else, Undermountain wouldn't be the same.
Just my opinion based on about a year's worth of NWN experiences.

Nice to see that SOMEONE agrees with me.
