I would have liked to have seen Tolkien rewrite the duel of Ecthelion and the Balrog. Impaling a foe on the spike of one's helmet seems inelegant.

I would love to see a more detailed version of Ecthelion Vs Gothmog aswell, it would be fantastic. I second your notion sir! Two of the most renown warriors of Middle Earth, how glorified, yet how satisfying.
