Khalid's body has been dissected beyond resurrection when you see him the
first time, he's obviously going to be too far gone by the time you get back. Any Return to Ilyich mod would have to make a small change to the map, putting a skeleton on that table in place of the body.
Although I do find it odd that when Jaheira says her piece about it, you don't even have the conversation option to suggest taking the body with you, in order to give Khalid a proper burial.

Hm. Khan Zahraa actually describes himself as a "Dao Djinn," and while he does mention some degree of separation between his own group and other Djinni, I didn't get the impression that he was of an entirely different species. I could be wrong, though, it's been a while.
I actually wouldn't mind a Promenade entrance to Chateau Irenicus--what better place to hide the comings and goings of a few people than in a bustling marketplace? It abviously wouldn't be a simple door, though--there has to be a respectable "front." It might be something in the nature of a 2-story tavern or inn, where only those VIP guests, who have passes, are allowed entrance to the back rooms. Sure, it might be just a
coincidence that the Promenade was where the explosion
happened to blast a hole, but if there were no
exit nearby, then Irenicus vs. Shadow Thieves would have had no reason to be there and cause the explosion in the first place.
Rebuilding Waukeen's Promenade, Topic 2: You call THIS a circus? Two roulette tables, a handicapped Avariel, and the lingering aroma of dead gnome? What a cornucopia of thrills, gaiety, and excitement.
Oh, and hey,
outside we've got a moose, a squirrel, and a snake, and of course the touring exhibits from the Hall of Wonders. Jeez, even the Ophals' dead dragon is more interesting than this stuff.
Suggestion: At some point*, get rid of the circus and replace it with more stalls. Apart from shops selling the obligatory more custom items, there could be a bookseller with every "History of" in the game, a down-on-his-luck Cowled Wizard selling some scrolls that could use some more representation in the game (Spook, Contagion, Protection from Acid, etc), an alchemist who sells potion components (Wyvern heads, Belladonna flowers, the "Root of the Problem" BAM could be some witch hazel, etc), maybe even a simple food store (Lynx Eye Gems for eggs, Frost Giant Potions for milk, and of course Dog Meat). Aerie can be dealt with quite easily by pawning her off on either Lady Yuth or Alateo de Bonito, either of whom would make a decent tutor in both wizardy and how to make a living in Athkatla.
*This point could either be 1 week after completing the Circus quest, the start of Chapter 6, or contingent on some other quest (which would be a whole other mod, so I won't go into it here). If
this map change does not take place at the same time as the "repairing the damage" map change, that could be very tricky--but then again, ToB shows us that the different areas of the Pocket Plane can change independently of one another, so it seems that is an option here as well.
