I guess Bliz has regretted Engineering as a profession since day 1 
despite it fits perfectly in the lore of the gnomes.  I've read the 
profession got an overhaul in BC so it actually became usable.  But 
seriously.  Besides a few mounts for AH, Moll-E, Jeeves and other odd 
items there are no demands for this profession.  At least not as it is now.

Its kinda the same with alchemy.  You have your daily CDs for living 
steel, you can make 4 different raid flasks, heal/mana/rejuv/jade 
serpent pots + the extended buff and thats it.  All the other pots and 
elixirs are so-what and only used for leveling.  I've also wondered why 
alchemists has this CD as it doesnt have much to do with alchemy at all.

Imho.  If Engineering should become interesting again Blizzard should 
move the daily CDs from alchemy to engineering.  Enchanting mats could 
be split up in basic mats and advanced mats for special enchanting where 
advanced mats can be made by engineers only etc..  This will fit 
perfectly into the thoughts of engineering.  Also it will make 
engineering more versatile.
But such move will also make a huge impact to many professions.  It will 
be aligned over time as more peeps will level engineering though.
