Shaders (Destiny)

If only shaders were applied semi-permanently to an existing item so that you can reselect them once they are unlocked, similar to how Ornaments work, but still allowing you to put new ones on. Eventually you could have every shader on that one chest piece you really love or w/e.

That would be a really interesting way to do it. Of course, the wheel of select-a-shader per item would be potentially huge, and you'd need storage for not only which shaders were applied, but also which were unlocked on a per-item basis. This could potentially be a big memory sink depending on how item data is collected / retrieved.
