      You're right, and this has been suggested before.

      If anyone wants to code this, I suggest an addition to the

      It should not be hard.
     
     
 Right - should not be hard to add exp.

 But what skill does the exp go to?  I can see this as much a problem as not
giving out exp.  If the player can control the category (through readied skill
or whatever), this may open up abuses.  IF this is hard coded to go to specific
categories, it proves mostly useless if the character isn't using that skill.

 I suppose you could give out the exp based on the current distribution in the
skill, so it goes mostly to what the player already has.
