Requested option: Synchronized layouts across Miner and Botanist

I made a similar thread in the Disciples of the Hand forum for crafter jobs, but I don't think it'll hurt to write a separate gatherer job one here as well.

Miner and Botanist both seem to currently have the exact same set of abilities and traits, with the only differences being purely visual with things like icon drawings and animations. Why do I point this out? Because right now as a console player, if I want to update my tabs for one job, I have to manually duplicate that effort for the other job as well since there isn't really any subjective reason for me to keep the two unique in terms of layouts.

With it being an optional setting in case some players do want to keep their layouts separate for whatever reason, I feel like there should really be an option to have the two layouts be synchronized. This could also include other things too like Teleport, Return, Mount Roulette, Sprint, and so on. Of course, this wouldn't affect Fisher since that has its own totally separate set of functionalities.

What do others think about this idea? My thanks to any developers who take a look at this thread as well; I really highly appreciate it! This request is even more notable for crafter jobs since there are eight similar ones instead of just two, but the idea still applies for two of the gatherer jobs as well.

/hotbar copy command is your friend. you can also set some hotbars to be shared hotbars across all classes.

I want it to be automatically synced though, not needing extra steps each time I change something on either job; that's what's not already present in the game.

Right, but I don't want to have to switch to say my last few console tabs whenever I switch from a combat job to a gatherer job, and then that gets even more complicated if I were to also want synchronized crafter options. That also doesn't address me having unique stuff on tabs that are used for WXHB options that I still want to show up differently for combat jobs, and I don't want to have to manually turn on or off certain shared hotbar settings after I switch to another job either. The game's current options for shared hotbars are limited; they're not the same as this thread's requested quality-of-life option.
