0002562: Infinite backpack when picking things up.
In adventure mode, trying to put an item, such as a held weapon, into a backpack with ten items in it gives a message that there isn't enough room. However, by dropping the item, then picking it up, it automatically gets put in the backpack, no matter how full it is.
Pick up an item with a full backpack.

From duplicate report:
Adventurer's backpack can carry many corpses.
Dwarf corpses too. And lead cages.

Maybe adventurers are just very good at tetris?

YOUR BACKPACK IS THE BACKPACK THAT WILL STORE THE HEAVENS!

This is an extremely long-standing issue - even back in the 2D versions, picking up an item into your backpack ignored its capacity.

One might argue that this is a feature, but at least the weight still affects you, so that is sort of self limiting in that way.
