There has been painter class threads already. Its a neat idea but the dye system is already in the game and recipis for these things already exist. I doubt they will do something like this.
I didn't see it... >_<
And yeah, I know there are some stuff other jobs can already do, I just think it would be better to have a focused job to give us some more options. Some of the recipies doesn't make sense... ¬¬

While this stuff would be cool, I think it would take a big overhaul in FFXIV's systems to allow it, and if such an overhaul did happen I think many people (myself included) would be frustrated that it were locked behind this new job.
I know it's a bit too narrow, but it's just the inicial idea. I decided to post here so we can add stuff to this and maybe the devs can think it's possible to add? I thought about the overhaul, but it didn't seem too much of a trouble to me for one of those big updates or something.

As for the new dyes lock, I was thinking about it before posting already. The idea would have an option like the "Request Meld" for the custom dyes or patterns, character wise. For the FC houses, I'm pretty sure most FCs have a crafter and the new crafted items would be for sale normally, they can even be sold with the custom colors and patterns.
