Can we get the craft price in the tooltip?

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I need to open my craft window or fly down to the order dudes to check the crafting cost.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to cache the recipe mats and do the cheapest craft #1376 calculation in the tooltip of items.
Describe alternatives you've considered
none
Additional context
I think it should be possible and a reasonably sized feature. I assume we can't just "download" all the recipes via API or somebody would have created a general recipe book by now. I can't find any addon. I would be fine with just the stuff I can craft myself or via orders. Just cache the recipe whenever a new one goes through the price calculator in the profession or order view.
This won't be added to Auctionator, because of the additional data that would need storing in the saved variables to make the feature work. This feature could be made as a separate addon that uses the official Auctionator API to get the prices: https://github.com/Auctionator/Auctionator/wiki/API-Documentation however.
This mini addon will do what you're looking for. It doesn't work for enchants and prospecting or milling or similar:

Almost there. If it could gobble up the order recipes as well, it would be all I could wish for
Made a better version that doesn't require opening any professions or crafting order screens and shows the reagents:
