Items to turn an active into a passive

Both of these items allow you to free up an active slot by making the active conditionally trigger.

Spiritual Automata: If Pocket buys Curse and combines it with Enchanters Cloak. The first player to take damage from Cloak will get cursed and Curse will go on cooldown. Other enemies wont get cursed, since Curse is single target only.

However if Pocket imbues Silence Wave, the item will go on cooldown whether it hits anyone, but every hero hit by Cloak will get silenced. This effect applies only once per hero per ability cast.

Casters Gauntlet: Similar but works with melee instead. Maybe the active should be canceled, if the melee is parried?

Both of these items have the potential to vary between broken and useless, which I like.
 
this seems like a neat idea on the surface but there is so many combinations with this that would be too absurdly overpowered, or just kinda wouldnt function at all that the item concept it's self needs to be re-imagined
Examples:
Refresher imbued on Dynamo Ultimate for 0 time between dynamo ults
Vortex Web Paradox Bomb
Majestic Leap
Ethereal Shift
Echo Shard
Phantom Strike
and more

theres also ultimately the issue of "why would this be bought" if its just making the item a passive
