I believe this is a most excellent idea. This will improve the skill
system substantially because players then really need to train
those skills which they are going to use:
E.g. can't reach literacy level 100 without actually using it.

That means *all* skills can be really balanced and used,
not only the monster-killer-skills.

I've always hoped this kind of improvement would happen
someday. So... go for it. :-)

I vote for number 3. Making skills available through quests seems
by far most interesting and enjoyable for me.
Maybe it can be combined though with some sort of maximum limit
how many skills a player can learn per level. But the limit should
definitly not be too restricting.
