Please unlink the inventory and crafting table recipe book. Please!

It would honestly make the game so much better if when you are crafting, you can open up your recipe book, but you don't have to close it again when going into your inventory. It makes the inventory GUI off center and you are unable to view potion effects. Most people rarely craft with the 2x2 crafting grid, and it wouldn't hurt them if these two are unlinked.
