Channel Divinity is, I think, one of the rare cross-class features, along with spell slots. It doesn't come up much, but I'm pretty sure using a Paladin Channel Divinity uses up your ability to activate a different CD gained from cleric levels until you rest.
Other than that, I'm not sure what -if anything -distinguishes CD from other magical effects. Does an anti magic field stop Channel Divinity, or is it sufficiently deity-based to overpower it, for example?
I'm curious about this mainly for homebrew purposes - it looks like there is a seed of something in the feature to distinguish divine and arcane power sources for magic, but I am not sure how much that space has been explored...
