I've been reading through a lot of the forum where the two writers of the the POTC movies hang out. The following is a comment by Ted Elliot. It's not a spoiler, though the thread it comes from is. So if you want to read the whole spoilery bit, go here. But the comment/question itself is something I've talked about in the past.

Here's a concept:

Yes!
