Gemstone Crafting
"custom workshop" not neccessary
what the title says. wouldn't it make a lot more sense if gemstone furniture was made at a jeweler's workshop, since that's where you use gems?

I firmly agree. Jeweler's Workshop would be fine. You could always rename it to "Gemcrafters Workshop"

This is one of those quirks of DF modding that would not be obvious at a glance. For reasons unknown to me, the Jeweler Workshop is hard-coded to not accept custom inputs. Otherwise I would absolutely agree. The only other option would be to remove the vanilla workshop and replace it with my own version. That might actually be feasible, but I'll have to dig into it more.

That's weird. Have you checked if that's still the case in 50d though? Might be they changed that.

Oh yes, lol. Believe me, I am well aware that the main workshops are already crowded, especially as more mods toss their own reactions in there. I could look into adding a sub-menu like with trinket crafting, but that's just pushing the problem down the road. For now, I'm afraid you'll just have to scroll a bit to see all the options at the Stoneworker (and Farmer's if you're using Bone Crafting also).
