"An interesting further variant that would weaken rooks and queens could ignore this" Yes I agree you can make up a further variant where if a rook or queen move two spaces forward non-capturing from the second rank, it can be captured using en-passan. One thing it means is that, rarely, a certain move won't checkmate even though it is the case in FIDE chess. Example:
r..r..q. ........ .....n.. R....... ......k* ........ b..N...R K...B...In case the rook on h2 moves to * then it can be captured by en-passan and is not checkmate.
