I figure the GL buff being passive is really just a band aid until 6.0 The gauge doesn't seem to get a lot of interactivity which they will probably redesign and the skills are being adjusted to work with this change. I doubt the PR Department would let them introduce new skills and a new gauge mid expansion if that gauge was being used on 6.0 so the changes would most likely be incomplete. I can't say anything definite until I play the 5.4 Monk but I'm certain we'll see more changes with Monk by 6.0.
