I have no problem with allowing people with exceptional stats to purchase
their skills higher than normal.  After all, they are "exceptional".

IIRC, exceptional/inferior stats only changes the number of
dice rolled for stat checks, right?  In that case, I could back
a proposal for allowing +/-2 to skill caps for each rank of
exceptional/inferior stat.  That would even be consistent
with what I was talking about in my last post about adjusting
the caps for mods based on exc/inf stats.  Other thoughts?
