Since many coins use the same ECDSA curve, your private keys should work in any of these "currencies" - they might just hash into different addresses.
https://www.coinlend.org <-- automated lending at various exchanges.
https://www.bitfinex.com <-- Trade BTC for other currencies and vice versa.

So how come nobody has invented a wallet to do this as of yet?

Seems like a no-brainer to me.
