Thanks for investing the time for a great summary.
I think healing will always be an issue unless some other mechanic (cc, globes, etc) changes again.
As the number one dps builds seems to be firebirds archon this will cause grift fights to be melee centered. When the meta was 2xWiz or Wiz/DH those classes needed to stay back as far as possible (passives for extra melee damage were changed after that I think) and let the tanks actually be tanks.
Now everyone is just clumped together in the middle of mobs.
If ranged builds become more important (cluster bombs maybe?) again monks could focus on toughness let the dps classes be class cannons again. This doesnt seem to be the case judging from the PTR so your approach seems really good.
