Post all your crazy trap ideas here.

There's a big discussion going on in IRC, figured it'd be a good idea to toss this up so people could get them down and saved.

Catapult traps, just like the rogue ones.
Any infusion/rune? Could be a trap! Even the positive ones.
A trap that creates a magma zone, a flood zone or a zero g zone.
Any sort of trap that launches stuff at you from a distance would be great, and give them a wider use and more chances to not be stupidly fatal.
Blast style traps that actually fling you around.
Collapsing wall/door traps.
Snake pits that spew snakes/spiders/hostile dwarves.
Earthquake traps that rearrange the terrain!

Of course, most of these would have a five turn or so cooldown on them...

Golem Guardian Trap

Opens one or more nearby wall sections, with a hostile golem inside.
Should not appear in early levels.

Spear waves

Corridor "trap". Lends itself to a number of variations:

A: The corridor is lined with tiles that have holes in them. Stepping on such a tile gives an aduible click and 1 turn later spears erupt on that tile, damaging anybody on them. In effect, it would not be wise to stand still on such tiles.

B: Same as above, but the spears trigger even without anybody triggering them, traveling in a wave
Example of a 5 turn sequence of such trap:

o = Free tile
x = Trap sprung

oxxx

xoxx

xxox

xxxo

oxxx
