Okay, if infravision goes to druid let's take a mage spell that is, shall
we say, nearly useless, and make it actually do something to substitute:

detect magic

When cast on another character, have it function like it does now, the
whole crossed fingers and auras and whatnot.

When cast on a room, you see the mana and where it is flowing as it
presently functions.

When cast on yourself, you can see local mana as a diffuse glow. You cannot
see the currents directly, but, by its light, you can make out the
enviroment is suffuses.

The more mana in the room, the better you can see. Very low levels are as
good as dark, but small amounts will reveal the presence of characters, the
rooms short and the presence of objects on the ground.

Moderate to high amounts allow you see in the room as if it were lit.

Extremely high would probably blot out everything in the room in a white
haze, though they don't prevent you from seeing your inventory, equipment,
etc.
