I'm sure you are all dying to know when this feature will be ready... We're currently aiming to implement this during patch 1.19, but depending on how development and testing progress, there is a possibility that it could be pushed back.

Sorry we can't make a concrete promise for 1.19, but hang in there just a bit more!
Thanks for the update Bayohne and bringing this to the attention of those that can improve this for the better. This really should be a priority and implemented as soon as possible, even before 1.19 if possible. One of the cornerstones and hallmarks of FFXIV is the Armoury system and how it *should* make changing jobs seamless and easy, unfortunately, that's not the case due to the cludgy Action Bar/Trait/Abilities interface. Switching classes in SE games has always been a big draw; this should be an effortless afterthought that adds to the complexity, flexibility and fun of playing the game, it shouldn't be a deterrent that leads to frustration.
