There is the "avatar cloth" graphics setting in preferences (if you
enable advanced preferences). Though the effect appears to be subtle and
not used for terribly much. There is certainly the possibility to extend
this functionality to be more explicit and improve it to be better, but
I believe its primarily making "loose" clothing flutter in the wind a
bit. Causing clothing to react to objects outside the avatar itself
(attachments, ground, objects in the world) is a *much* more complex
problem however.
This is a good feature request, and directly related to avatars, but
my todo list is quickly growing beyond what I think I can reasonably
accomplish. If any open source devs want to take this on as a project,
I'd be happy to provide what support I can, but this will go on my "nice
to have someday" list for now.
