Edit: But I'm down for even an announcement that they'll take another look at monk.
They wouldn't need to, they have their own metrics on exactly how many people are playing what job within a time frame. FFlogs has just been mentioned because it's one of the only metrics for tracking job use the players have.

As for how long they've known, that's anyone's guess. I'd speculate that Monk would have seen an abrupt drop in plays immediately after 5.1 when it was no longer the strongest DPS, but the devs really should have something in the pipeline in terms of Monk revisions after the launch reception was abysmal to say the least.
