The spell is called detect magic not detect mana. Paladins and warriors are not magical beings.
3665, Yup.

It works that way for the same reason it doesn't notice blessed items. Mage-y stuff and cleric-y stuff are entirely separate beasts. Also, a warrior's mana stat is largely a matter of non-magical mental energy (Rager powers use it, Berserk, etc.).
