And finally, yes, repairs are a pain, as is checking on the item--I usually forget to check until it's too late. Perhaps a daily report when items hit 20%, "your Frying Pan of Doom +3 is too damaged to be of use to you, you need to get it repaired immediately."
This way you can make sure to repair it while it still has some utensile strength.
