Has it been done? No
Can it be done? Technically yes, but the amount of work involved to actually make them work is far more than what you gain. Blizzard left virtually all of them out because they acted strange in Multiplayer, so not only would they need to be activated, they would need to be fixed.

The only ones that still exist as actual quests are The Butcher, Lazarus and Diablo. Leoric is still in there, but there isn't a 'quest' associated with him in MP.

Thanks for the reply now that you mention it I think recall having read about this before, though it must have been quite some time ago.. seems to me like they had no concept for handling quest items or something like that.. you know, I wouldn't even want gimmicks like shared quests or shared quest rewards.. just one quest trigger and one reward per session and whoever gets the quest first gets the reward as well.. just like it would be in real life.. hmm I think I'll try emailing the guys who made 'The Dark', maybe they can tell me more about this.

Re: SP quests in MP: is there a mod?

I think their problem is what to do with all the unique objects they handed out. A million Griswold's Edges would rather quickly clog up the economy. Then again, The Butcher doesn't always drop the cleaver and Leoric doesn't always drop his crown, so they certainly could have taken that approach for most, if not all of the quests.

Some, like the Spectral Elixir, would probably be too overpowering though.
