Summary: Equipment PROFICIENCY Token

Original message from: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/pcgen_experimental/message/8006

PROFICIENCY is another token that is a problem due to ambiguity. This
is supposed to declare the Proficiency name that is required to use
the item. However, the challenge is that this is Type dependent (thus
it might be an Shield Proficiency, might be a Weapon Proficiency).
The challenge is that the TYPE should not be required to appear before
the PROFICIENCY token on the LST line.

This is another case where I would like to make the token specific.

(... and before anyone asks, no, my claim that CHOICE is unique is not
inconsistent with this sharing the same problem model - CHOICE is
using Type Safe Constants, and PROFICIENCY refers to PObjects)

One could just add a qualifier:

PROFICIENCY:WEAPON|Crossbow (Heavy)

Thoughts?
