Re: Feats. You're going to have a number of clickie-attacks. I'm not sure if Improved Feint is going to fit in smoothly. I'd rather take Empower Healing to increase your self-heals by cocoon. Pretty much
à la mode is the deflect arrows feat, taken as a monk bonus feat for the 6th monk level. I don't consider Toughness to be mandatory anymore. If you have a +4 Dex tome, you can consider to spend 1 level-up in Dex in order to take Improved Sneak Attack as an epic feat.
Re: Enhancements, keeping the order of your screen shot.
Horc: You didn't include this. I guess you took extra PA enhancements.
Mechanic: W&SM is the most viable thing from this tree, yet you can consider to drop it.
If you are tight on APs (and I bet you are!), you could opt to drop this and heal yourself with Cocoon. That's usually enough for self-healing epic hards. If you don't feel comfy enough with that, consider Empower Healing as a feat.
Acrobat: Things you didn't take: Swift Strikes (from this tree) is great the monk one has a longer cool down.
Vault is a Wings clickie, which I quite like, but the AP investment is debatable. By all means, get Staff Specialization from here or Henshin. I'd ignore the core abilities. Depending on how trippy you want to play, you might or might not need the extra trip DC.
Henshin: If you don't like the Acrobat Tree that much, put points in here and get the Staff Spec from here. I like Lighting the candle; it procs on every single glancing blow. Generally speaking, I think that the acrobat tree has more goodies, but the finisher is a nice thing. I'd pick up Fists of Iron from somewhere in addition to knock on the Sky. I consider Void Strike to be too costly, AP-wise, and I think that the Core Ki-Spells are not the thing to focus on a Str-Melee build.
Ninja Spy: Yes, Shadow Veil is where it's at. If you need to consolidate your APs, consider dropping some of the SA damage enhancements. You already get a decent amount of that, thanks to your 13 rogue levels. I'd focus on survivability and unsituational damage. More dodge and more dodge cap is not a bad thing. This tree is another place to take one of the two elemental attacks.
Shintao: If I find the APs, I spend 6 points in Iron Skin. In order to get there, getting 2 tiers of Exemplar (+2 heal = +2 positive spell power) and Reed in the Wind seems the best option. As said before, the elemental attacks are good, but probably best taken in a tree where you want to get to higher core abilities or tier 4/5 enhancements.

Also Earth stance vs. Wind stance? Or switch according to the situation?
Imho, Earth stance is the better choice due to extra HP (a difference of +5 Con are 56 or 84 HPs at 28) and more PRR. Damage-wise, I don't think that they are very far apart, considering that you already have a weapon with a good crit profile (Sireth from the box, hopefully), and have a decent amount of doublestrike (Swift Strikes)
