i would have 2 suggestions:
-it would be great to add a way to create a custom rule for "best".
-at the very least, an option to "minimize" the cost of the crafting. For instance if we're just training a low level crafter, we can set him to use the cheapest materials for all his bills

About the problems with shelves commented on below: The problem isn't actually with shelves, but a partial incompatibility with Performance Fish - see description for details.

Ummm... Any chance this is getting updated to 1.5? Please?

It's not really working for me also, since I store most of my stuff in shelves.
It seems pawns only look inside the nearest shelf...
Just now, crafted a plainleather corset when wolfskin is available, then try to do same with formal vest ("use best by armor" checked)
