About this ad-hoc hide vs purposeful hide thingie.
I simply felt it appropriate to grant a bonus whenever you put some rule in roleplaying context. Like "I search for secret doors on the far wall" instead of "I take 20 to search the room" or "I guess this manta ray statuette must have some secret function in this manta-themed underwater temple. I'm looking for more things that resemble a manta ray" instead of just "I'm looking for secret doors or compartments".
This is in addition to providing roleplaying XP for taking the long mile to make your post a more enjoyable read.
Thoughts?
