Stephen queries if all Cradles need to have a Gold Wheel Dancer. I thought that in the Chaosium campaign, the first Cradle for hundreds of years occurred precisely because Cradles DO need a Gold Wheel Dancer, and the one resurrected by Urrgh the Ugly was what they had been waiting for.

Absolutely. For a start, its only lay membership. But loving the city, and wanting it to be peaceful and prosperous, and enthusiastically participating in all its city customs is in no way incompatible with wanting to relieve its richer members of their excess wealth. Of course, almost all the individual members of the Pavis cult will want you caught and punished, but the gods are not always concerned with the Law. And from Lanbrils point of view, its almost expected that you are seen to be involved with other cults, as Nick points out -

The Master Thief and wanna-be crimelord in my campaign owns a fish shop, and is widely respected among the Zola Fel cult (he is a River Voice). Think of Marvel Comics Kingpin, who always maintains "I am just a humble dealer in spices."
