I don't know if this has been talked about, I actually think it might not be possible with the physics engine... but would it be possible to half hand a blade? That would turn a sword into a weaker blunt weapon that can be used against heavily armored opponents like in real life. With the physics engine, it makes me kind of think that it would dig into the player's hands without chain gloves, but I'm hoping that's not the case. In real life, you are actually pretty safe half handing a sword, even with no gloves at all.
I'm not sure if it would be possible give what I stated, but I think it would add realism if a skill made it so that pressing a button made the character half-hand their sword weapons.
