New hybrid skill gems

Static strike got me instantly thinking this would be a nice support effect,
timed stacks of pulsing lightning nova.

Currently we use coc/cast on melee kill to trigger shock or ice nova,
but this could work too.
My point is, I'd like to see some sort of ability to merge 2 skills,
most likely by corrupting them.

How awesome and fun would it be to merge cyclone and static strike?
Spin around and discharge on the fly...

Primary skill gems that can only receive a merge could be:
Heavy strike, leap slam, ground slam, cleave, reave, etc.

Gems that can be only merged on to primary skill gems could be:
Lightning strike, viper strike, puncture, static strike, etc.



You could now cleave/leap/heavy strike/reave with a poison/bleed/static strike pulse effect...
Lots of possibilities to explore.
Coc/cast on melee kill gems take up too many sockets and only proc when certain conditions are met.

There would be of course some balanced nerfed effects on these new hybrid gems with reduced dmg etc.
This would simply add more diversity to skills and make combat less monotone.

Current support gems don't really offer enough fun.
Take a look at D3 glyphs, they can completely change the entire function,
appearance and mechanic of any skill. That's something Poe is lacking, and hard.
We just slap more and more dps support onto our attacks and that's pretty dry to be honest.
