...I'm not sure I get the part about doubling up on the gathering profession. ...
For whatever reason, I found that I had very little success and/or comfort having to mouseover and perform the gathering action on one of the slave's windows. So, I have both mining and herbalism on my main (oh, if only the nodes could be targetted so that we could make a macro like for skinning!). That means I have a redundant level 1 gathering skill on one slave toon. Not a huge deal, since I tend to get easily distracted and make several teams of five with different class combos so that I can also get other tradeskills, but not the most efficient use of 10 tradeskill slots on one team.
