I like this idea too! :)

The mock up looks great!

With rampage league around the corner, quick inventory management is becoming more important than ever. And I think I am not the only one who sometimes carries around unidentified blue items for a while thinking that they are rare items. Buy you can't tell when you quickly open your inventory to make some room for a newly dropped rare since unid items all have the same background color. My suggestion is to add borders to the 2d art of unidentified items, according to their rarity (magic, rare or unique). Similar to Torchlight 2 or Diablo 3 (in which case the whole backgrounds have different colors, which would also be an option), where you can immediately tell which items are magic, which are rare and which are uniques.
