While it's a good idea, it'll be a bit difficult to properly pull off. In particular, the linking of card skills in this manner will be very difficult to pull off in any kind of efficient way using the current templates, since it would require either manually linking up card skill names to their respective list pages, or some very complex code (I'm not enough of an expert to be able to pull off something on this scale). Either way, it will be difficult to have that kind of advanced linking in the card pages, since each skill will need to potentially link to a different list page.

Creating the list pages themselves shouldn't be too much work if I used automated scripts, but I am a little hesitant to do so, since the scripts require a decent amount of server resources, and I do think the existing card lists do a respectable job of allowing searching by skill. I would rather we use the server power to fulfill a need that currently isn't being filled. Creating the lists manually is an option, but I highly doubt anyone wants to put in the amount of work it would take to pull that off, especially when existing pages do essentially the same thing, except in a different manner.

With all that being said, I am open to the possibility, but I would ask that the pros and cons be considered, as the potential benefits might not outweigh the costs, especially when existing options exist that could already be utilized for the same purpose.
