          Yep, in most systems, crafting and business go together. Much of it
          is to give a variety of options for a service class. Keep em busy,
          instead of idle.
          
          I wonder if there's support to split crafter and businessman? SWG
          has different paths on the trees for it. Anyone know of a pure
          businessman?
