WoW-10.0.x: KNOWN ISSUE

Profession skills are NOT AVAILABLE until any one of the profession journals have been opened by the player.

The C_TradeSkillUI.OpenTradeSkill method to open profession journal dialogs from code has been restricted and now requires a hardware event like a mouse click. Because of this, the underlying LibTourist library can  no longer automatically open and close one of those dialogs during initialization to make profession skill data available.
Any ideas on how to work around this are much appreciated 🙂
