0003462: Metal floodgate forging orders ignored
Specifically, iron floodgates. Have tried work orders via manager and via q-profile of forges; have not tried reproducing this yet with other metals.
1. Build a metalsmith's forge or magma forge.
2. Enable all metalsmithing labors on a dwarf.
3. Add metal floodgate order to forge queue.
4. Wait.
4a. Use burrow for dwarf limited exclusively to said forge.
Have not done steps 2 or 4a, but did have all metalsmithing labors enabled between multiple dwarves, and was not using burrows to exclude forges; workshop profiles did not have minimums higher than dabbling at the time, either, which rules that possibility out.
No tags attached.

What happens if you turn off all workshop profiles? Reports say that they are currently broken.

Ah, go figure. Turns out it was a minimum-skill profile issue after all.
A bit too hasty on my end; sorry.

Although, it does bring up an interesting (if trivial) side issue: work orders that assign jobs to a workshop whose min/max skill limitations result in no dwarves being able to use it for that sort of task (I'd set the forge in question to Professional dwarves at minimum, with another forge elsewhere for dabblers; had been thinking of my weaponsmiths at the time) will result in the task just sitting there at the top of the list preventing anything else from being done at that workshop.

Not a problem. As for your point you mentioned in the note, I guess that's more a suggestion than a bug for now.
