Arcane Spellcraft vs Divine Spellcraft

As far as i know there is no restriction to spellcraft in that way. At least I did not find any.
Still, even though it's a houserule and doesn't really belong in this forum, in my campaign I restrict the classes and their spellcraft knowledge to their appropriate spell list.
Spells being on both, arcane and divine lists, may be identified with another -5 penalty to the check.
Spells not on the list may be identified with a penalty of 5+spell level to the check, so the Cleric in question could identify the spell being cast as Meteorswarm with a spellcraft check of 38 (15+9 [normal DC to identify] +5+9 [penalty for foreign spell-list]).

They melded Spellcraft and Spellcraft; yet they separated Spellcraft and Spellcraft from Psicraft. Go figure.
Arcane Metamagic and Item Creation feats can be used for divine spells, and vice-versa (i.e., a multiclassed wizard/cleric could scribe scrolls of divine spells). but a multiclassed psion/wizard or psion/cleric could not use one class's feat with another's powers.
Psionic magic seems closer to arcane magic than the latter is to divine magic.
Oh well. Personnally, Psicraft is the same as Spellcraft and Remote View is the same as Scrying. Metamagic and metapsionic are one and the same (just remember that +1 level = +2 power point cost).
It makes more sense this way.
