Accent skills

Since we can know learn accents, would it be possible to have them listed under "Skills language"?

Or are they doomed to be on the list of "invisible skills"?

Arm is evil.  And I love it.  It's like the softest, cuddliest, happy smelling teddy bear in the world, except it is stuffed with meth needles that inject you everytime

Typing "change accent" with no argument gives you the list of accents you know.  Invisible, they are not.

I agree with Maybe42or54.  It would be kinda nice to have them on the Skills lists under language skills.

While I think it'd be nice as well, there are some legacy issues with accents that would make transitioning them to visibly listed skills awkward.  I think there are more pressing issues to resolve before this, especially since there is already a way to display which accents are available to your character.  As was pointed out earlier in the thread, "change accent" by itself lists the accents you're familiar enough with to start speaking.
