Quests for crafters

I would like a little more content for players/characters who are specialising in crafting, rather than using this part of the game as an extra feature to the regular questing and dungeoneering.
E.g.
Gathering quests for some of the NPCs around the crafting areas.
Armor making quests for army chief NPCs who need some new items for their armies
Potion making quests for village doctors (missed opportunity here already ofc...)
The rewards would be crafting related: tempers, gems etc, plus some XP in a related crafting skill, maybe even skill points.
Basically you have to play the regular quests at the moment in order to increase your main level and get skill points (once you have found the skyshards), if I want to make a crafting focused character where all my skill points are in crafting I get relatively weaker as I level up compared to other characters with skill points in fighting related skills.
Currently of course it is a trade-off, most characters choose a couple of skills and ignore the others, but this would open up a different build of player I think and allow the crafting skills to move out of being a sideline for players who want to major in them.
Therefore allowing gathering quests to give skill points opens up an alternative route of character development e.g. a non-combatant character who is a master of all the crafting skills.
