DW Skill Line & Alternate Weapon Line suggestions

As a melee DD skill line, would it not make sense to do the following:
1. Change Twin Slash ability to a Gap Closer
2. Change Hidden Blade to an Execute (Instead of Whirlwind "Spin-to-Win")
Stamina-based builds are already extremely biased, due to lack of effective Stamina Morphs from Class Abilities. Limiting a play style to Two Handed alone does not offer any form of diversity to get two almost necessary ability types for a melee stam build. While Nightblades have a Class Gap Closer AND Class Execute (Both Mag and Stam), not all other classes do...thus limiting Stamina-based builds to Class specific or weapon specific options.
Other Weapon Skill Lines worth mentioning, as there have been LOTS of threads in this regard:
1. Polearms/Spears - would make an effective skill line that could even incorporate use of Mounted Combat
2. DW Hand Crossbows
3. One Handed Wand & Spell Shield -or- One Handed Weapon & Hand Spells - this option has been given through nearly ever TES to use melee weapon skills WITH magical short-long ranged spells.
***Side note: I am surprised there has not been any implement of a Magical Destruction Staff as there are many sets/skills that scale on Magical Damage vs. Fire/Lightning/Frost...
