You don't need to add any new record keeping. Just allocate the
experience based on the current ratio between the various categories.
So if a "fighter" has twice the physical experience as his magical
experience, for every three party points he receives, two go to
physical, and one goes to magical. (You could code this by comparing
the experience in each category to the total experience, but you would
want to watch out for rounding altering the expected net result.)
That makes sense to me, anyway.
