3.  Ranma finds a way to split off his cursed form, only to discover that
it's still his body.  That is to say both male and female forms are
controlled by one mind/soul/spirit - effectively Ranma can be in two
places at once, see two seperate visions seperated by miles, etc...  Now
how does he/she handle all this and what are the effects on Ranma of being
in two bodies at once?  [Those who know the "Paratwa" series might
recognise the inspiration and have further ideas]

The excellent "Autumn and Spring" had this idea in it.  It was dealt with
and completed in the space of a few paragraphs, but it was there.  And
it was a most evocative treatment of the split, too, IMHO.
