Suggestion: Addressing the unusable gear problem via Gear Exchange!

Dear devs--you may already be kicking this idea around (or have kicked it out the door), but many of us who have been playing for a while have hundreds, or even thousands, of unused/unusable gear stockpiled. One productive way to deal with this issue, I think, would be a gear exchange (NOT a gear exchange between players) in which players can trade in lower level gear for higher level gear of their choice. For example, 5 white pieces could be traded in for 1 green piece, 5 green pieces for 1 blue piece, 5 blue for 1 purple, and 5 purple for 1 gold piece. This would add a fun and productive new component to the game for which the player base would be immensely appreciative and grateful. Please consider it ... (otherwise, love the recent update and all that came with it!)
