In the modern generation, charge plugs known as "wall warts" are like

The odds of finding similar voltage and plug design is very slight. If
the new device is the same voltage, you can use a charge plug with a
higher available amperage, in most situaitons.

It's not quite "very slight", but it isn't great ;-)

i'd go as far as fairly good, on my desk I have 3 devices that operate from
12V DC , one from 9.3V AC and one 6VDC

That said, I've become quite annoyed with the whole thing, and am
seriously thinking of building a desk wiring harness that has a single
(possibly 20VAC) supply, with plug in (eg: 1/4" phone jacks
or somesuch) adapters that contain the different voltage/AC-DC/plug
converters.

watch out for earth loops between interconnected devices, especially when
the other end of the loop isn't ground.
