What I have so far is as follows:
Yea I started looking at this item also to script. Pretty much you have the same concept I would go with. The big issue when dealing with weight is its a very specific set of timing to get it change the value and still affect the total weight on the hero.

So applying Ghost Touch Weapon Item Power to all gear items is not really going to do anything. It is meant to only work if at all on magic weapons.

So timing I would need to look up from my Spellbooks equipment addon. The other thing is be careful with adding foreach loops they are CPU intensive.
Code:
~ If not equipped get out now!
doneif (field[gIsEquip].value = 0)
~ Only process if we are incorporeal
doneif (#hasability[raIncorpor] = 1)

~ Find all gear items and set weight to zero
foreach pick in hero from MyGear
   ~ Apply Ghost Touch tag to all weapons
   if (eachpick.tagis[component.BaseWep] = 1) then
     perform eachpick.assign[Ability.iGhostTch]
   endif

   ~ Set the item weight to zero
  eachpick.field[gWeight].value = 0
  eachpick.field[gearWeight].value = 0

nexteach
My spellbook stuff runs at PreLevel/10500.

The only last thing I would change is to look for the Incorporeal Subtype on the hero instead of a Racial Special. But I am not near HL and don't remember the unique id for that subtype.
