I think a rework of this kind could open the path towards AP crit items among other things, yes. I'm not sure how that could get implemented, but I figure there would be a lot of AP champions ( and, as you mentioned, but also , , , , , etc.) who would very much like to access such an item, which would also indicate that any such AP crit item should probably not be too bursty. Additionally, the reason I included abilities as part of crit, aside from the fact that it's the M.O. on the system I based myself on (namely, triple-strike mechanics like and, which work on both basic attacks and abilities), is because I feel it would place more importance on spells for marksmen, whose damaging abilities typically end up feeling not too useful later in the game because they're always outclassed by their basic attacks. It would also open the path for potential CDR + crit builds, I think, which might be interesting to see.
