Question about upcoming Vanity system

[TheUltimate3]

Taking the last two comments...

-The system is called "Glamours" or "Glamour Prism" there have been somewhat conflicted accounts. But the word glamour is in there somewhere.
-It's coming in Patch 2.2.
-Crafters will make the crystals that will be used to "reflect the appearance of gear" or some such nonsense. They are supposedly easy to make and shouldn't cost an arm and a leg.
-Limitations attached to it so classes cannot hide their true classes, as stated a warrior won't be able to run in wearing a mages robe, and vice versa.

Wouldn't it be easier if they did it like other mmos have done it? Particularly DCUO, where you choose from a list which item you would like to be in the vanity slot.

Yes if this game didn't have to support hardware from 2005.

Lolwut? The PS3 has NOTHING to do with the decisions make it crafter-based. People have just been crying about making crafting relevant, so Yoshi figured that the Glamour system was the best way to do that.

Two bird and one rock situation. Namely, crafters need something to be of use to more than just other crafters, and this game needed a vanity system.

From my understanding of posts I have seen crafters will become even more useful than ever with a future update including higher level crafting recipes yes? All the more reason to include vanity as part of crafting.
