FS#5782 - changing weapons in battle doesn't work
If I have no weapons while in battle and I take out swords, I continue fighting with no weapons. If I stop attacking and then start again, the swords get used.

Yes, as far as I remember, it has always been like that. Maybe a change in the hand slots should trigger a /stopattack. The first attack does have a longer delay, so the need to start another attack after switching weapons makes sense.
Switching weapons during the fight without /stopattack / /startattack could be very useful, especially in case of mixed style fight: first use ranged weapon, then switch to melee, and switch back to ranged then monster was killed to engage another.
For now on, we should use shortcuts, like this:
/stopattack
/equip <weapon name>
/startattack
Shortcuts may be really usefull then player tactics was "polished", but weapon may be also switched from quickbar or from inventory window. So I vote for easy weapon switching during the fight.
