Is this a bug?

I walked into my house last night and used detect hidden and guess what?
My DEX went up 1 point! Is this true??? Can you still gain DEX using Detect
Hidden in your house even though it is a free skill? If that is true then that
means free DEX for everyone!!!

What he means ( and if you own a house on any server you can test this) is
that you gain dex from using detect hidden in your house. Yet it always
succeeds if you are the house's owner, and it will never go up as long as
you are the owner. i.e.- macro "detect hidden" all day and what you're
effectively doing is macroing "gain dexterity" instead.

Can someone out there try this out and see if it works? I am not a
macroer so I don't have any UOA-like program to do it. If it is true
I'd like to know. Dex is not as easy to gain as you'd think nowadays.
At least, not if you don't want to waste skills on snooping or cooking.
