I admit that every class should have some highest thing that's BoP and some BoE which could be sold for profit.
I do, however, realize that usually selling the materials needed for some craftable usually provide higher profit than the actual craftable. Which why blizzard should decrease the initial materials needed to make things or higher drop/gathering rate so that there would be so much stuff for sale that the price of materials would never exceed the crafted item's price.
Engineers will indeed get some nice stuff in WotLK according to what's revealed. It will be as useful (read: fun to use) as before, even if not many of the items you make are useful after you pass the respective level range.
I cherish the idea of making parachute kits for cloaks and boosters for boots so you don't have to keep 30 levels lower stuff in your bank just for those Gadgetzan etc transports. Just hope Blizzard would understand that fun isn't opposite of effectiveness, so that these "kits" woulnd't occupy enchant slot for respective item either, but I guess that's not going to happen.
