If i remember corectly, Swen said in one of interviews that this is supposed to feel just as if you are wandering in DnD ... and DM sudently ask you to roll perception check ...
And it does pretty well ...
You also dont forget that you just rolled your dices, just bcs your character didnt noticed anything.
There is just some weird urge in our heads to find out what was that roll for ... but honestly, that is just bad roleplaying. :-/
I would agree with toggle ... some people just cant controll themselves and this could help them ... but i want to see all my rolls.

I wonder ...
How would you feel if Larian would add there some trick perception rolls? Stuff that would be completely irellevant, almost even stupid to check ... to discourage us from trying hard find out what just happened?
Like i dunno ... noticing a rare bird, or nice flower, or find half of a copper coin that would have no value at all, stuff like that?
I mean ... part of this problem is that even if we fail, we know that there is something important around.
This way we wouldnt know.
