Is Trap Detection allowable in a Champion's kit, or does it have to be item-exclusive?

I'm trying to make a Thief Champion, and giving Trap Detection as an element of the kit would definitely play to the fantasy. But I have to ask whether or not the mechanic is allowable as something built into a Champion's kit, or whether the mechanic must be item-exclusive.

Riot would most likely stay away from it, because it's extremely situational and they tend to stay away from situational power.

Not that I agree with that philosophy, but it is what it is.

Although, I suppose if they could detect wards as well, it would be fine. That's basically item 3147 though.

I think trap detection would be fine as part of the champion's kit if it was situational and also happened to apply to anything else that was stealthed.

So a thief champion with the ability to stealth himself and while stealthed he can see all stealthed/camoflauged things/champions, and disables traps - this would be feasible in my opinion.
