Racial Class Skills

I saw this at

http://www.rpg.net/news+reviews/columns/dming21sep04.html

(it is at the bottom of the page)

The author, NotMousse, substitutes
a racial class skill access for racial
skill bonus in games he runs.

What do you think, cool or not?

My 2 cp:

I kind of like it. It can more beneficial
in the long run, but not overpowering.
To me, it seems more in the spirit
of how a racial affinity would work.

OTOH, bonuses that are based on
physical characteristics should be
straight up, so size bonuses and
penalties should stay as they are.

Elf senses should be a fixed bonus
as well, because it is biological,
not an affinity.
