I've heard of some games doing that sort of thing...
I think, for myself, I'd make the player justify why the 'alteration' should take place... why is there a loaded gun in the drawer? why would there be a sword on the wall?... and base the decision to allow it on how convincing his/her justification is.

That sort of thing doesn't bug me as much as re-rolls... it's proactive and imaginative.
