The reason I would include profession is just so that the character has a role to play in the town's activities. Every town has a blacksmith, priest, king, etc. That way, it would provide some degree of mandatory roleplay and importance for the character to exist in that town. In a sense, nobody gets left out because everyone has a role to play. I think it would really help with some people complaining about being "unimportant to the story". Because hey, if the town blacksmith makes a large majority of the military's weapons, and he/she kicks the bucket, the town loses something valuable even if that character wasn't particularly story important.
