Please make the Elemental Blade of Fire and it's summoning rod sacrificeable again

Could the sword and it's summoning rod be made valid targets for the sacrificial flame again please?

I find the sword useful at low levels (troll killing!) but at higher levels I prefer to get rid of it entirely. Unfortunately, it's no longer a valid target for the sacrificial flame

And... for PCs without the exotic weapons proficiency, it really really really really sucks if you get booted/disconnected with the sword in hand, because it unequips to inventory when you log back in... and it's non-transfereable, non-saccable, and yeah... it sucks having it stuck.
