I think that people would just do what you said: They'd have a character to kill stuff with, a character to farm stuff with and a character that has all the crafting skills.
One of the things we're trying to do, since UO is old as you say, is to remove some of the hassle from the game, and making people have to switch characters and move stuff between the characters is just adding hassle without really preventing people from having all the skills.
I've been adding lots of stuff to make it where people have more options for making money besides just professions, though, so hopefully there will be enough things that you can do where one person can't become self sufficient for everything that they want without sinking huge amounts of time into the game. :p
