I like this idea, but it simply won't work on my mud, because the %
chance of failing on a skill is actually important, read: Oh My Gawd!
When players find a skill/spell they have 20% chance of using it, which
goes up with usage, not prac sessions, so it takes quite alot of using
for it to get up to say 80%.
Since this way makes it truly permanent, then the % chance is less
important.
