One of the main reasons Blizzard gave for not making a new hero class: Death Knights felt like they should start at a higher level. You were already a hero.
So, wait. A tinker would have to have been a great engineer. And an Alchemist would have to already have to be a great alchemist. !!!
So what if, to unlock a Tinker, or some other class, you were required to reach level 55 with a character of a certain profession?
Think about it!
Engineer: Tinker
Scribe: Runemaster
Enchanter: ...Enchanter as a class? Int plate!
Blacksmith: A City of Heroes Mastermind-style pet class with suits of armor as pets please and thank you.
Tailor: Demon Hunter. Because of reasons. >.>
Alchemist: Alchemist
Leatherworking: Beast Master
Jewelcrafter: .....Okay, I give up.
But seriously! What classes would you like to see that could be implemented this way?
Think it's possible?
