Remeber that you need every concequence of your race as a number or a
boolean on your character sheet if it is to be usable by other rules.
If you create a human, you don't want to have to mess around with
race-dependent stuff. That's why I think the race modifiers should be
incorporated in an optional part of character generation, so you
wouldn't use it if you're only using humans.

This is interesting. I'll mention it in the faq. Btw I think we should
first decide on how to represent a human, and then look at what we
have to do to make that work for other races.
