"Ignore weapon" option for generate/appear commands (0)

When a character is commanded to appear or generate an entity on a tile which has a weapon (but no actual entity) on it, it waits politely for the weapon to be off of the tile. This is a problem when (in my case) the goal is to run a disappear-->change appearance-->reappear sequence of commands and have it seem that the custom thing didn't actually disappear at all. It would be nice to have an option or a separate command that will allow the same behavior as appear and generate entity except it will not politely wait for a weapon, only for an actual entity that is really in the way (since things can exist under weapons in lots of circumstances, and even be teleported underneath one!)
