Does it strike anyone else as appropriate that zapping a stack of leather items with a wand of undead turning instead of a wand of polymorph should produce some random leather-hided monster: leather golem, horse, pig, goat? This to go along with the "leather golem should drop the occasional saddle" idea someone else suggested.
The point being that leather is a "dead thing" and so should respond to undead turning.
Of course, zapping undead turning at a pile of _rotted_ leather items should produce the corresponding _zombie_ "leather creature".

No. no more than zapping a pile of tins of jackals should produce zombie jackals. Leather is more than skin; a number of steps in a process is applied to the animal product to produce leather. Before you zap a wand of undead turning at a corpse, do you have to rub salt in the corpse and hang it out to dry in the sun?

I've zapped a big pile of gold with a wand of polymorph and created a hostile gold golem.

If that were the case, could you then zap a wand of UT at an ex-wood golem and get a wooden horse?
You climb inside the wooden horse --more-- it's very dark in here--more-- you hear rumblings and squeakings --more-- you climb out of the wooden horse --more--
(Find yourself 'ported to a 'Troy' level with dozens of sleeping soldiers and loads of loot.)

ROFL.
Sometimes instead of getting a wooden horse, you might get a wooden rabbit.... climbing into the rabbit would be a bad idea....

This would be even more amusing if you were unable to enter the horse while carrying any sacks, bags, boxes, chests, and suchlike.
The question arises ... how do you get _back_ from this level? Get on a boat?

Uh, you have to marry the Princess @ and raise a bunch of @lings.

**Homeric spoilers ahead**
Well, it's a while since I read the odessey, but I guess you'd have to set off on a boat, have your entire crew massacred by a variety of hideous monsters, get shipwrecked on an island where you shack up with a nymph for a few years before finally building a raft and sailing home to your (very forgiving) wife and son who assist you in slaughtering a load of unwanted house guests.
