IMO that is a defect of crafting/gathering and not a defect of the proposed feature.

Especially with the timer for crafting being removed, it makes a lot of sense for the system to be adjusted to allow for certain commands that can't currently be performed while it is in progress.

This I very much agree with, it is a problem with crafting. But I do believe that it is the crafters who are fighting hardest for the ability to use a /ls[n] command so it is understandable to be frustrated that this so called solution will be useless until they do fix it to work hand in hand with crafting. I also have not read any mention of this being fixed in the forseeable future, hence the frustration.



Edit: As an afterthought, it is possible that it will serve a use to crafters afterall. Not in its intended fashion but as a text command outside of a macro, just straight into the chat box. I'm not sure if it will work and it's not as convenient but it may work. A simple /ls[n] command is still better IMHO but a /el [n] command would suffice.

I appologise to SE for jumping down their throat about the conflict between macros/hot keys and crafting, I got too tied up in the concept that they would be the only way to use this.
