This is not expresssly stated in rule 503 and that's aprt of the problem.
the rule states only that a player must state e is drinking the glass of
champagne to do so not that the glass of schampagne is within eir
possession. I fully concur with Orc's CFI on the matter if I didnt' I
wouldn't have made the prop to cover the loophole.. there is no such
loophole in any other object rule. each explicitly states that the player
must be in possession of an object to consume or otherwise modify it. thusly
glotmorf suggestion for alteration is redundancy and as orc stated  earlier
it would prevent players from picking up items in random grid squares as
that would modify the status oif said object though it is not within the
possesion of said player. Thusly I made the prop exclusive to 503 as no
other object rules are in need of similar modifications, andto make a
generalised rule would cripple current gameplay by being too ambiguous.
