This means if you do have a broken leg, and want to make a difference before you end it all, you can 
It also means people cant just suicide to get back to an objective to help protect it :p |
But then people would suicide pill spam! I mean repedively commit suicide just to be a jackass.

Another limitation is that you cannot have floors over floors. Probably the best bet would be to combine a couple renderers, like portals and terrain, so you can have indoor and outdoor scenery.
By the way, I think I posted this before, but
http://cal3d.sourceforge.net/ is a free skeletal animation library. It could be possible to use it to implement ragdoll physics if used in conjunction with OpenDE. I think it is under GPL, though, so no problem if you are going to GPL your engine.
