(Although, last minute brain activity says being able to see magical object is pretty useless to most everyone as well.)

Yup. It wasn't really intended as an upgrade. More for continuity with present dogma and future projects.

That said, most objects that do something fairly unusual will be one or more of (Blessed)/(Magical). It might convince you to take a second look at an otherwise unexceptional object. Of course, sometimes an object is just marked (Blessed) to fit with its origin, and it doesn't denote additional power.
