As it stands bashiok even says he wants the ability to be more active. With this I agree, but I feel that if they buff the skill they also need to buff the passive.
-Chant of Resonance will become solely a 1 spirit per second ability. Compared with other classes equivalent this is very weak.
-Astral Presence(mage): increases arcane power by 20 and arcane power regen by 2. Making running out of power even harder to do.
-Galvanizing Ward(mage): increases duration of armors by 120seconds and adds 160 life per second.
-Inspiring Presence(barbarian): doubles the duration of shouts and while a shout is active regen 60% life per minute.
-Unforgiving(barbarian): you no longer degenerate rage and gain 1 rage every 2 seconds. From a distance this doesent look better then the monk's but the fact you no longer degenerate rage is huge for barbs.

I think you have some interesting ideas here. I might suggest though that you contribute to the discussion here : http://www.diablofans.com/topic/29452-changed-monk-skills/
Or in the other respective class forums.
Thanks for the thoughts :-)
